Toner Phoner Scam

This notice is to alert all staff regarding what is known as the "phoner toner" scam. The "phoner toner" scam, preys on employees with promises of low prices. Posing as a vendor, the scammer contacts an employee of the College. The employee hears about an offer on toner that just happens to fit their printer or copier. Naturally, there is a limited supply or a limited time and the caller makes it seem that they are an approved vendor and just needs a verbal agreement to authorize the sale. The resulting delivery contains the surprise. The College is charged an exorbitant price for the product.

Please remember to never disclose information about your printer, copier or other equipment to a vendor calling on the telephone. Also, do not agree to purchase any product from the vendor calling you.

You can find more information about toner scams on the FTC website, http://www.ftc.gov/

Important message regarding copiers

For departments with a color copier/MFD, please make sure your print default is set to black and white. If your print default is set to color, your department will get charged for color even when printing black and white documents. When you change your print default to black and white, you can manually choose the color print setting when needed.
