As fraud becomes more prevalent, here are some things you can do to help yourself and your clients.

  • Use a secure platform;
  • Confirm wire instructions with your clients signing the WIRE FRAUD PREVENTION NOTICE;
  • Verify the wiring process with your vendors;
  • Make sure you always ask for and receive your Federal Wire Reference Number;
  • If you or your client are victims of wire fraud, notify the bank immediately;
  • Again, TALK TO YOUR CLIENT ABOUT IT!
