Upstate Investigators recover over 300K after company scammed

Anderson County Sheriff's Office

An Anderson County based company has received over 300 grand after it fell victim to a scam over the summer. The Anderson County Sheriff's Office says a liquidation company in Williamston wired over half a million dollars to a scammer in an effort to pay outstanding invoices.

The balances were said to be correct, but where the money ended up was the issue. The Sheriff's Office says the scam included a suspect hacking the email of another Upstate business and creating fake documents saying that their bank info had changed.


Investigators were able to track the wire transfers and recovered $305,000; they then returned the money to the company.
