IMPLEMENTATION OF FRAUDULENT COVID-19 SHIPPING AND INSURANCE FEES BY CRIMINAL ACTORS

Source: FBI

Original Date Posted: 6/11/2020

The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) is issuing this announcement to raise awareness of criminal actors exploiting the public and the shipping industry by invoking fake COVID-19-related regulations and fees. The FBI is aware of incidents involving individuals or companies referencing fake "newly enacted" COVID-19 shipping laws, regulations, or insurance requirements with the purpose of charging additional fees before the delivery of a product. Examples of this criminal activity include demanding fraudulent COVID-19 insurance fees after the purchase for the delivery of live pets from online U.S. websites. An additional example includes criminal actors fraudulently collecting "refundable" maritime insurance fees, citing fake COVID-19 laws.
