For Cybersecurity Awareness Month, we’re shining a light on Business Email Compromise (BEC). Scammers may impersonate someone you know or trust to request money, sensitive information or changes to payment instructions.

Watch for unexpected requests, urgent language, suspicious email addresses and changes to payment instructions. When something doesn’t look right, take a moment to verify the request through a trusted source.

Don’t get tricked by what looks familiar. Stay alert and spot the red flags. 👻
