To our valued customers,

UPDATE The Scam artist is now sending emails that look like they are coming from ar@richardswilcox.com, but they are really being sent by email ar@richardswilcox.co. They are stating that Richards Wilcox will only accept ACH payments going forward. This is not true. They are sending false banking information telling you to send Richards Wilcox payments to the scam artist’s bank account. If you receive any of these emails please contact me. Do not honor any requests to change remittance information without first reaching out to me at 630-264-4522 or Ken at 630-264-4513 to verify that the request is truly from Richards Wilcox.

We recently had an incident where a scam artist called one of our customers and told them that Richards Wilcox was asking all customers to go to ACH payments, and then asked that customer for their contact information so that they could provide ACH details.  Luckily for us, the customer caught on and nothing happened.

I am sending this note to state that please do not change your remittance information for us unless you receive written confirmation from either me or our Controller.  We will never call to request you to change our banking information without first sending out a written confirmation.

If you have any questions feel free to contact me.

Thank you for your cooperation in this matter.

Please contact your Regional Manager to verify any changes.
