Buyer Awareness Alert – Serious Cheating Tactics by Some Account Managers

In recent times, we’ve observed a serious malpractice happening in the market involving a few account managers of well-known brands who have been cheating genuine buyers.

👉 Here’s how the trap works:

• Initially, they approach buyers using unknown marketing sources and offer attractive deals to build trust.
• Once the buyer starts regular business, these individuals intentionally divert one or two invoices for cash collection instead of proper bank transfers.
• After collecting the cash, they disappear for weeks or even months.
• Suddenly, a person from the same company — often the same account manager — reappears claiming that payments were never received, and starts threatening buyers with legal action to pressurize them into paying again.

This is a planned cheating technique that can put honest traders at risk, damage reputations, and create unnecessary legal complications.

At ALiFTAR, we strongly condemn such practices. We believe this needs to be exposed publicly so other genuine traders don’t fall into the same trap.

✅ ALiFTAR has already started taking legal advice to initiate proper action and protect the interests of other buyers and traders in the market. Transparency and trust are the foundation of fair business — and we will not tolerate fraudulent behavior that exploits either.

📢 Buyers are advised to:

• Always insist on official company communication.
• Make payments strictly through bank transfers.
• Avoid cash transactions, especially with individuals.
• Report suspicious behavior immediately to company management.

Let’s work together to keep the trading ecosystem clean and fair for everyone.
