Prevention of fraudulent invoices
Dear Bradford City Council,
I am making a request under the FOI Act.
What steps do you employ to prevent the payment of fraudulent invoices that have been raised in the name of existing suppliers (i.e. where a fraudster raises an invoice in the name of a company that is already a supplier but with the fraudster’s own bank details)?
I await your response within 20 working days.
Yours faithfully,
Helen McNally
