3 Simple Steps To Protect Your Small Business From Email Wire Fraud Scammers

Email scammers are attacking our clients, demanding payment.

Their persistent, rude, and sneaky. They’ve become smarter, making emails and PDFs look like companies they’re trying to imitate.

As the scammer’s emails to our client went ignored, their frequency and intensity increased.

Our client became concerned and notified our Dedicated Account Manager because the emails and invoices looked exactly like ours. The only difference was one letter in the email domain.

Sneaky bastards!

So, as a precaution, I sent out an email to all our customers, warning them of the issue. One particular customer replied and said they were recently frauded out of $6,000 through a similar situation (not from our company).

If you haven’t been on high alert yet, don’t wait; now is the time to get more aggressive to protect your company and clients.

Upgrade all your technology security settings.

Duh, right?
