This notice was supplied to current active suppliers within Macquarie University’s purchasing database.
Macquarie University has recently become aware of fraudulent activity that is targeting Macquarie University and other suppliers.
This electronic scam involves requests for quotations and establishment of a credit account, then a subsequent issue of a purchase order, which purports to come from Macquarie University but is in fact fraudulent. In some cases the fraud has involved completing an online request for information/quotation through the supplier’s website.
It appears the scam operates through the ordering of goods which when delivered, are then transferred elsewhere and the supplier does not receive payment for the goods.
The University has informed the relevant law enforcement agencies and we will work with those agencies to investigate this fraudulent activity.
Information for suppliers
Though the investigation is ongoing we are aware of some common traits or themes of the fraudulent activity and its origin. These are as follows:
- The sender’s email address is not from the University’s email address domain which is @mq.edu.au. Fraudulent emails have been received by suppliers from:
- The email message is poorly written, with misspellings and awkward sentence structure.
- The email requesting a quotation or attaching a purchase order will appear to be from a staff member at Macquarie University’s accounts payable division.
- The purchase order will include a delivery address that is typically a warehousing and/or distribution centre that is NOT associated with the University’s current delivery address (Unit 2, Warehouse C, 68 Waterloo Road, Macquarie Park NSW 2113 Australia).
- The phone number in the email will include the prefix ’61 2 8317′ (The University’s phone numbers all have the prefix 9850).
In the event that you suspect fraud in any way please contact your local law enforcement agency.
Macquarie University values its relationship with its suppliers and greatly appreciates your cooperation in reporting instances of suspected fraud to poscam@mq.edu.au.

This is happening again; we received quote request through company website and email from Dr Darren Furniss (From: “Dr. Darren Furniss”
Date: 22 April 2020 at 7:06:40 am AEST)
We responded with a quote and without any technical disciussion or site visit for assessment, PO was raised by the University. I believe it is Frudulent activity and should be investigated further. I have sent copy of the PO along with email details to (which was on MQ University Letter head) poscam@mq.edu.au

Hello Larry
Could you please email this text through to our finance team for investigation please: poscam@mq.edu.au
The scammers below work with a shipping agent for a partner scammer pretending to be a purchasing agent for Macquarie University (existing legitimate customer of many vendors). The bogus purchasing officer(s) at Mac Univ (Bernard Cheung and Micheal Robertson- fake names) places a fraudulent purchase order for high value goods for delivery to the 3rd party shipping (Russian) shipping agent’ s warehouse in Caringbah (Admiral). Since the scammers need a physical address to receive the fraudulently obtained goods, the logistics company (Admiral) may indeed be the actual scammers or could be “cut-outs” or “go betweens” for the scammers. Either way, Admiral International (http://admiralgroup.com.au/ ) would be directly participating in crime by receiving goods obtained fraudulently by deception. Vendors process the fraudulent purchase orders from Mac Univ, send the goods to the 3rd party warehouse (Admiral), but, never get paid. Admiral (warehouse) can claim to not be a party to the scam and only another vendor. However, Admiral is listed on the purchase order as the “ship-to” location, so clearly is a knowing participant. Further, they answer emails and telephone calls directly linked to the scam shipments sent from fake Macquarie emails.
Mac Univ needs to take more serious action with the AFP to stop this ongoing scam activity damaging their brand.
HI there, our Finance team have advised that any fraudulent purchase orders should be emailed to poscam@mq.edu.au for investigation.
