Payments go to company accounts in the company's name, or through the secure checkout on our official websites. A "manager's personal account to speed things up" is a scam, every time.
Our recruitment is free at every stage — no application fees, no "training kits", no visa-processing charges. Anyone charging money for a Wigmore job is a criminal, not a recruiter.
If you receive "our account details have changed" mid-transaction, stop. Verify through a channel you already trust — not the one that sent the message — before any money moves.
We invoice in ordinary currency to documented accounts. Untraceable payment methods are demanded for one reason only: so you can't get the money back.
"Pay in the next hour or lose the deal / the container / the job" is a manipulation technique, not how trade works. Real business survives a verification phone call.
Deals conducted entirely inside a social media DM, or moved off our official channels to a "personal WhatsApp", are not our deals — however convincing the profile looks.
Paste the email address or web address that contacted you, and we'll check it against our official domains.
The checker matches against our official domains and is guidance, not a guarantee — sophisticated fraud can forge the display of a genuine address ("spoofing"), and a lookalike domain one letter off can fool anyone in a hurry. Independent verification through this website remains the gold standard. Wigmore Trading is not responsible for losses arising from dealings with impersonators, and we actively pursue reported fraud with the relevant authorities.
These patterns target customers of every trading and logistics company. Recognising the shape is most of the defence.
A convincing profile offers wholesale goods at too-good prices, using our name and photos. Money is sent; goods never existed. Defence: buy only via wigmorewholesale.com or deals initiated through this website's channels.
A "recruiter" offers a Wigmore job — after a processing, training or uniform fee. Defence: all real vacancies are at wigmoretrading.com/jobs and applying costs nothing, ever. Applications go to jobs@wigmoretrading.com.
Mid-transaction, an email "from us" announces new bank details — the classic business email compromise. Defence: verify any change of account by contacting us through this website before paying a kobo.
Your "shipment" is stuck and a small customs/delivery/insurance fee will release it — followed by another, and another. Defence: real charges on real shipments are invoiced with documentation; our shipping updates come with a tracked file you can query.
A social media account copies our logo and posts, then DMs "customers" with offers. Defence: only trust social accounts you reached from this website's footer — and report clones to the platform and to us.
Someone claims to be our representative for diaspora projects, land or cars, collecting money personally. Defence: our real service uses contracts, escrow with licensed partners, and never a personal account.
Look at the actual email address or URL — not the display name. Anything that isn't our official domains (checker above) fails immediately, including near-misses like "wigmore-trading.net".
Type wigmoretrading.com into your browser yourself and use the WhatsApp or email you find here. Ask us to confirm the person, the deal, or the invoice. Real staff verify happily.
Confirm bank details through an independent channel before every first payment — and again if details ever "change". Thirty seconds of checking beats months of recovery.
Screenshots, addresses, account numbers, receipts. If something is wrong, evidence is what lets us, your bank and the authorities act fast.
Every report helps us shut down impersonators faster and warn others. If money has already moved, act in this order: contact your bank first — recall requests are most effective in the first hours — then report.
A genuine business survives scrutiny — invite it. If anything claiming to be Wigmore feels off, ask us directly and we'll confirm or deny it in plain language.
