Invoice Fraud Is a Real and Growing Risk
Construction is one of the most targeted industries for payment redirection and invoice fraud. It usually starts with a compromised email account or a convincing impersonation of a supplier, then ends with a progress payment landing in the wrong bank account, sometimes for hundreds of thousands of dollars.
We put practical controls in place to stop it: email security that flags impersonation attempts, multi-factor authentication so a stolen password isn't enough to get in, and verification processes for any request to change payment details. It's one of the highest-value protections we provide for construction and engineering clients.
