Borgese and Impact Medical accepted the proposed Consent Order and Judgment against them.
New York AG will not tolerate PPE dealers engaging in deception and fraud
In a statement, Attorney General James said, “When IMPACT Medical sold non-existent PPE, they put people’s health and lives at risk. This reprehensible conduct is as illegal as it is immoral. Our actions today send a message to all purported dealers: New York will not allow this type of fraud or deception to stand, and we will fight it across the nation.”
“I urge defrauded purchasers of PPE and other COVID-related supplies to contact my office immediately, and I urge all New Yorkers to continue to follow our tips on how to avoid potential scams before purchasing PPE,” added Attorney General James.
New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo said, “It is disgusting that some companies tried to take advantage of the COVID-19 pandemic for their own financial gains.” He praised Attorney General James for “taking decisive action to protect New York” from Impact Medical’s “half-baked attempt to sell non-existent PPE.”
