Warning about unathorised advertising scam
26 September 2005 Food businesses are warned not to buy advertising space from spruikers claiming to be official representatives of the NSW Food Authority. The Authority has received a number of complaints about people claiming to represent the Food Authority (or SafeFood) and attempting to sell advertising for "The Food Inspector" magazine.
The Food Authority does not produce publications with paid advertising and does not contract or employ "agents or representatives" to sell advertising space on its behalf. The approach can come from a caller or fax.
If you are contacted by anyone trying to sell advertising and purporting to represent the Food Authority or SafeFood, please contact Christine Tumney on 02 9741-4779. (NOTE: The NSW Food Authority was established in April 2004, and was formerly known as SafeFood.)
