FBI Agent Bunny Gooch spoke to Industry Credit Groups to share very important information for private sector suppliers. As a credit manager, you are in a position to identify situations that "don't fit right." It falls right into that "gut feel" credit managers sometimes get when evaluating a potential new sale. If a potential customer asks a lot questions or doesn't know much about the product they want to purchase, be suspicious! If it doesn't seem to be the a logical purchase for this type customer, or if they want a large quantity of product that may be used in illicit and terrorist purposes, BE CONCERNED and report it.

Know your products. Be Aware. Your effort makes a difference.

Peroxide Product Awareness

Products that contain peroxides can be unstable in high concentration or when blended with other chemicals and have been used for illicit and terrorist purposes.

• Spa and pool sanitizers
• Hair color developers / bleachers
• Household cleaning products
• Specialty bonding and curing agents
• Industrial oxidizers

What can you do? Follow these simple steps:

• Recognize hazardous chemicals in your product inventory
• Know your customers and report suspicious or unusual purchase to authorities
• Check your inventory and report missing or stolen products
• Ask for customer I.D. and maintain a log of large purchases.
