Independent procurement check

Check before you quote or pay

Search a part number, a supplier domain or the address an enquiry came from against documented alerts and public records.

Example: AP45-CIE91 · example.com · purchasing@example.com

  • Published alerts
  • Live public records
  • Independent evidence

No result is not a safety clearance.

How to check this yourself

  1. Check when the supplier's domain was registered

    We query the domain registry live and show you the record. This is the same source every alert on this site is built on, and you can verify it yourself.

    We hold a published record for apexpumpengineering.com.

    This domain is only months old. That is not proof of anything on its own — but a site that presents itself as a long-established manufacturer while operating from a domain this new is contradicting its own registry record, and that is the pattern behind these enquiries. Note also that only the minimum registration term was paid for.

How to recognise this before you pay

  1. The part number returns exactly one supplier

    Genuine industrial parts are stocked by distributors, listed in catalogues and discussed in forums. A code that exists on one website and nowhere else was invented to send you there.

  2. A large company enquires from a free mailbox

    Procurement departments write from their own domain. Gmail, Outlook and similar addresses do not become legitimate because the signature says otherwise.

  3. Replies are directed to a slightly different domain

    Check the reply address character by character against the company's real website. A city name or extra word appended to a famous brand is the whole trick.

  4. The supplier wants payment before shipping

    Advance payment to a supplier you found only through the buyer's enquiry is how the money leaves. Established suppliers offer terms or escrow.

  5. The supplier's domain is young, or recently changed hands

    A registry lookup takes thirty seconds. A "manufacturer since 2004" operating from a domain registered last spring is telling you something.

  6. No company registration number

    Registered companies in most of Europe must publish their registration number. Check it against the national register rather than trusting the footer.

How the check works

Start with the exact code or address from the enquiry.

  1. Search the exact string We match it against documented alerts, and ask whether independent distributors list it at all.
  2. Check the domain record We read the registry live: when it was registered, and whether ownership has changed.
  3. Open the evidence Every alert lists its sources with the date each was read, so you can check them yourself.

What your result can mean

  • Documented alert

    Evidenced

    The part number, domain or address appears in a published investigation. Open the record before you act on the enquiry.

  • Reported, not yet verified

    Reported Under review

    Somebody has sent us a report and the check is not finished. Do not treat it as settled in either direction.

    Send us what you have

  • No database match

    We hold no matching report. That is not approval, and it does not prove the supplier is genuine.
