Business Email Compromise (BEC) Support

Business Email Compromise (BEC) is a type of cybercrime using email to fraudulently convince companies to make unauthorised payments to criminals.

Criminals attempt to impersonate executives and managers within a organisation and pressurise staff to make payments or transfer company funds.

BEC & CEO Fraud

Also known as CEO Fraud, this scam is exceptionally simple in its method and is one of the most lucrative forms of cybercrime for hackers. Often conducted without the need for technical skills; hackers are capable of circumventing even the most expensive and complex company security systems with just an email.
