Small firms at risk from fraud
Reported on Wed, 16 Aug 2006
Small firms could be turning to business loans after new research reveals that fraudsters are increasingly targeting the UK's small companies.
The Federation of Small Businesses (FSB) has issued a warning to its members following an increase in the number of fake calls from fraudsters posing as Companies House officials.
Taking a business loan out to cover the cost of setting up a secure online system may help smaaler firms to protect themselves from fraud.
David Croucher home affairs chairman at the FSB, said: "Company identity fraud, though still mercifully rare, is on the increase and can go undetected for a long time.
"When it does happen it can be devastating for small firms and in the worst cases, businesses can go bust because of it."
He went on to say that "trying to recoup money and sensitive information" after it has been stolen can prove to be extremely difficult for small companies.
Small business owners and self-employed tradesmen are advised to not respond to calls asking for private information.
