NFCU - 2025 - A003 - Risk of Document Fraud in Laboratory Results_
SUBJECT OF ALERT
The National Food Crime Unit is asking businesses along the food supply chain to be conscious of fraudulent laboratory test results being used as a method to facilitate potential food crime.
False results have been seen using the following methods:
• The adulteration of genuine lab documents where key information such as dates or results were changed
• Second hand sources of data being presented, such as spreadsheets where out of specification results were amended or omitted entirely and did not match the original results when checked against certificates.
• False certificates being created using details of a closed lab.
