Beware of criminals impersonating company directors to approve fake invoices
Recently there have been a spate of email frauds specifically targeting business accounts/payment processing departments.
Criminals are identifying senior company personnel such as directors and acquiring their email addresses. They then send faked internal emails (in a Spear Phishing attack) which appear to be from a director etc. , instructing an individual in the accounts department to transfer funds to a named sort code and account number.
The accounts department are then fooled into thinking that they have received a legitimate request from a director but in fact this is a criminal attempt to defraud.
