The IOC has been made aware of several instances of fraudulent emails and paper-based letters being sent to vendors requesting updates to their banking information. These are not legitimate and are part of various scams targeting vendors that may receive payments from the IOC.

The IOC will never, under any circumstances, send unsolicited forms requesting sensitive bank account information. Your financial security is important to us, and we take every measure to protect your information.
