With a holiday weekend coming up, fraudsters are working harder than ever to defraud clients.
Be aware & alert about the following:
- Be aware of last minute changes. Especially changes to wire instructions!
- Don’t rush! Holiday weekends are a time when everything seems to be rushed. Fraudsters take advantage of this and use this as a way to infiltrate the transaction.
- Protect your email! Use secured emails to send wire instructions and always have multi factor authentication turned on.
- Work with trusted partners like WCT to keep your clients safe and if you see something, say something. If something isn’t as it seems, always call.
