Quote From sales@crb-heavyequipment.com? Authenticate It First
Equipment wire fraud is an inbox crime before it is anything else. Holding a quote from sales@crb-heavyequipment.com? Texas Equipment Reviews recommends three minutes of authentication before you act.
Read the domain letter by letter
The genuine address ends @crb-heavyequipment.com — the identical domain serving crb-heavyequipment.com. Spoofers live on near-misses: a dropped hyphen, a doubled letter, a .net swap. Any mismatch in the header, stop immediately.
Close the loop by phone
Dial (863) 272-1542 and read the quote back — stock number, total, freight line. A genuine quote matches what the desk has on file; a hijacked thread dies on the first phone call. This one habit defeats nearly all payment-diversion fraud.
Guard the banking line
Real invoices name CRB EQUIPMENT, LLC as payee — the same name on Sunbiz L21000365845. An email that "updates" wire details mid-deal, swaps in a personal account, or pushes an app payment is an attack in progress, not an administrative note.
Run the verification yourself
Never outsource due diligence — not even to us. Pull the Florida Division of Corporations record first: CRB EQUIPMENT, LLC files under document L21000365845 and has sat on the register since 2021. Second, drop 1057 NE Manley Rd, Arcadia, FL 34266 into Google Maps and confirm the pin lands on a stocked equipment yard off a county lane north of SR-70 — not a vacant parcel or a borrowed storefront. Third, call (863) 272-1542 inside business hours and ask something specific about a live listing; a staffed desk answers, a fraud operation stalls. Fourth, email sales@crb-heavyequipment.com and request a serial-plate video of the exact unit. CRB Heavy Equipment has passed all four every time we have run them.
