The cost of replacing the misrepresented equipment is only a
fraction of the cost to the companies victimized by this fraud.
They must add the cost of lost man-hours, dropped customer calls,
employee frustration, and curtailed productivity –
these expenses are incalculable
when determining the true expense of these actions.
DON’T LET THIS HAPPEN TO YOU!
A few guidelines on the next page can possibly save you
thousands in time and money.
1) Confirm that the vendor you are
considering is an Authorized Dealer for the equipment you are
purchasing. In most cases, only an Authorized Dealer can buy direct
from the manufacturers –
unauthorized dealers get their equipment from whatever sources they
can uncover.
2) Check the length of time the vendor has
been in business at their current location and under the same name.
Unscrupulous vendors often change names and locations to
shed themselves of obligations,
including warranties their customers thought they had.
3) Remember – these companies are often very
accomplished in their deception –
be wary and don’t be shy about asking tough questions.
Frauds such as these are a “black-eye” to the
entire industry. We at National Telesystems are proud of our
