Scam Warnings

Scams are attempts by cyber criminals to gather information about you in order to steal your money, personal information, and financial information. Everyone is a possible target for cyber fraudsters that construct scam communications in order to deceive you into disclosing personal or sensitive information.

On occasion, Bulk Buys identifies emails, SMS and phone scams that claim to be authentic communication from Bulk Buys. They often look genuine, with characteristics such as our logo and branding lifted directly from our actual messages. The URLs in these scam communications take you to bogus websites that may seem similar to the Bulk Buys website but have a slightly different address that is unrelated to our brand. For example, the link might take you to the website www.bulk-buys.com.au instead of www.bulkbuys.com.au

Bulk Buys advises customers to be aware of scammers impersonating our Bulk Buys brand in promotional emails, website links, phone calls, text messages, and social media posts. These scammers often request or attempt to obtain your personal or financial information or exploit you for financial gain.
