Hello All,
We wanted to share some crucial security tips from KnowBe4 regarding wire transfer fraud. This type of fraud is increasingly common and can have serious consequences for our organization.
Please take this information seriously and remain vigilant. Remember, our CEO and Finance department will never ask for wire transfers via email. If you have any doubts, always verify through a secondary method.
Key Points to Remember:
- Verify Requests: Always verify wire transfer requests through a secondary method, such as a phone call, especially if the request is unexpected or comes from a new contact.
- Be Cautious of Urgency: Fraudsters often create a sense of urgency to rush decisions. Take your time to verify the legitimacy of the request.
- Check Email Addresses: Pay close attention to the sender's email address. Look for slight variations that may indicate a fraudulent email.
- Be Vigilant: Be particularly cautious if you receive wire transfer requests from the CEO or Finance department. They will never ask for such requests via email.
- Report Suspicious Activity: If you receive a suspicious wire transfer request, report it immediately to our IT department.
