  <title><![CDATA[Fraud Alert]]></title>
  <body><![CDATA[<p>The Office of Procurement and Business Services has received reports that suppliers are receiving fraudulent requests from persons impersonating Georgia Tech purchasing staff for the purchase of goods. These requests do not come from Georgia Tech and suppliers should ensure that they perform due diligence on any request for goods and services. Georgia Tech issues purchase orders for all goods and services, and suppliers should ensure that they receive a valid purchase order prior to supplying any goods.&nbsp;Suppliers may check whether a purchase order is valid by navigating to the&nbsp;<a href="https://lite.gatech.edu/lite_script/dashboards/purchase_order_inquiry.html">Workday Supplier PO Validation/Payment Inquiry</a>&nbsp;page and selecting the&nbsp;<em>Purchase Order Inquiry</em>&nbsp;icon.&nbsp;</p>

  <!--  TO DO: correct to not conflate categories and news room topics  -->
  <!--  Disquisition: it's funny how I write these TODOs and then never
         revisit them. It's as though the act of writing the thing down frees me
         from the responsibility to actually solve the problem. But what can I
         say? There are more problems than there's time to solve.  -->
