TK Elevator
Malaysia
The fraudulent attempts were done through hoax emails sent from email addresses impersonating as personnel of TK Elevator Malaysia (using an email domain address appearing similar to that of TK Elevator Malaysia).
They appear as communication related to our business transactions in which they demand our customers to alter payment information or instructions under false pretences, such as making threats to commence legal action if our customer fails to make payment, and then requesting our customers to make payment to a third party company and a third party bank account for all monies payable under our business transactions.
These fraudulent emails are in no way affiliated with TK Elevator Malaysia Sdn Bhd and should not be regarded as such. We would like to stress that we have never issued or authorised the issuance of such emails or communication to any of our customers for the instructions to make any payment via bank transfer, T/T remittance or cheque/bank draft issuance to any other company name, address and bank account at all.
Further, we want to inform you that any payment to such unauthorised persons does not release you of a payment due to us pursuant to the invoices issued in our business transaction. Please do not hesitate to contact our designated credit control officer, [creditcontrol@tkeap.com] should you have any further queries or concerns regarding any payment issues.
Thank you.
Yours faithfully,
James Leong
Managing Director
TK Elevator Malaysia Sdn Bhd (formerly known as thyssenkrupp Elevator Malaysia Sdn Bhd)
