It involves using online solutions to commit fraud.<\/p>\n<p>With the development of the Internet and online banking solutions, cybercriminals\u2019 schemes have been evolving and becoming increasingly elaborate. They use identity theft, phishing, and <a href=\"https:\/\/trustpair.com\/gb\/blog\/what-is-social-engineering-fraud-and-how-does-it-work\/\">other types of social engineering attacks<\/a> to reach their goals.<\/p>\n<p>In a typical corporate fraud scenario, perpetrators contact a member of your company under false pretenses to get them to:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Reveal confidential information,<\/li>\n<li>Wire funds to their accounts.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Cyber fraud often happens in various steps. For example, they\u2019ll first steal login credentials from an employee and then proceed to use them to access your business bank account and transfer funds.<\/p>\n<h2>What are the main types of cyberfraud?<\/h2>\n<h3>Phishing<\/h3>\n<p>Phishing attacks are considered a <strong>priority threat by security experts<\/strong>. They always seem to be on the rise, with individuals and corporations alike being targeted. The Federal Trade Commission even published some phishing protection guidelines to warn people against them.<\/p>\n<p>In phishing scams, scammers trick their victim into committing an action they wouldn\u2019t consent to under normal circumstances, such as:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Revealing personal information (like their login information),<\/li>\n<li>Giving sensitive data about your business (like your credit card numbers, or payroll info),<\/li>\n<li>Downloading malware hidden in attachments or on counterfeit websites.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Phishing emails often include too-good-to-be-true offers to lure their recipients into clicking the links they contain. Phishers also use other forms of communication for their scams, like:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Vishing (phishing over the phone)<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/trustpair.com\/gb\/blog\/smishing-and-phishing-definition-key-differences-and-examples\/\">Smishing<\/a> (phishing by text messages)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Pharming<\/h3>\n<p>Pharming comes from the mix of \u201cphishing\u201d and \u201cfarming\u201d. Pharmers, as the perpetrators of this kind of cyberattack are called, use <strong>false pretenses to harvest confidential information.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>In pharming attacks (learn more about pharming attacks <a href=\"https:\/\/trustpair.com\/gb\/blog\/what-is-a-pharming-attack-and-how-can-you-stop-it-from-happening\/\">right here<\/a>), cybercriminals use spoofing to create websites that collect important data \u2014 login credentials, financial information, etc&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>When their victims land on their legitimate-looking websites, they try to log in as usual, only to see an error message displayed once they\u2019ve entered their login information.<\/p>\n<p>Although the website looks legitimate, it\u2019s actually a copy pharmers made that\u2019s hosted on their own servers, and is automatically collecting their personal data. Hackers will then be able to reuse the information harvested on a real website, like the one of a financial institution.<\/p>\n<h3>Malware<\/h3>\n<p>Malware is a type of software that is used for malicious purposes \u2014 hence the name.<\/p>\n<p>Internet users are prompted to download it under false pretenses. Ironically, they\u2019re often told there is a security breach in their antivirus software and an urgent update is required.<\/p>\n<p>When installed on a device, <strong>malware can damage its operating system, or access confidential data<\/strong>. It can lead to your whole network being compromised.<\/p>\n<p>Spyware is a variation that does espionage for its owner. The software copies and scraps the data present on a device (or network!) and sends it back to its sender. This information can then be used for committing <a href=\"https:\/\/trustpair.com\/gb\/blog\/wire-transfer-fraud-prevention-best-practices-and-recovery\/\">wire transfer scams<\/a>, or be sold on the dark web.<\/p>\n<p>Ransomware on the other hand seizes control of your device or data and asks for a ransom in exchange for giving you back access to your own assets.<\/p>\n<h3>Business Email Compromise<\/h3>\n<p>Business Email Compromise (BEC) is an elaborate kind of<strong> cybersecurity threat that targets businesses<\/strong>. Fraudsters contact employees under false pretenses, asking them to reveal or modify financial information that will lead to wire fraud.<\/p>\n<p>Scammers often commit identity fraud, even hacking into legitimate e-mail accounts to impersonate a supplier, another employee, or even a member of the tax office. It\u2019s considered a white-collar crime.<\/p>\n<p>BEC works through a mix of social engineering tactics, putting pressure on their victims to get them to act quickly. Common BEC scams include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/trustpair.com\/gb\/blog\/ceo-fraud-how-to-protect-your-organization-from-fraudsters\/\">CEO fraud:<\/a> someone contacts an employee pretending to be their CEO (or another high-level executive) asking to make an \u201curgent payment\u201d or to send confidential data.<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/trustpair.com\/gb\/vendor-fraud-prevention\/\">Vendor fraud:<\/a> fraudsters impersonate one of your suppliers and ask for their bank account details to be modified. Next time your company pays an invoice from your real supplier, funds will be sent to the criminals\u2019.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Learn more about fraud techniques in <a href=\"https:\/\/trustpair.com\/gb\/resources\/2025-uk-fraud-trends-and-insights\/\">our latest fraud report!<\/a><\/p>\n<p><!--HubSpot Call-to-Action Code --><span id=\"hs-cta-wrapper-26e69232-c009-4130-a9a9-c5b1c44d4013\" class=\"hs-cta-wrapper\"><span id=\"hs-cta-26e69232-c009-4130-a9a9-c5b1c44d4013\" class=\"hs-cta-node hs-cta-26e69232-c009-4130-a9a9-c5b1c44d4013\"><!-- [if lte IE 8]>\n\n\n<div id=\"hs-cta-ie-element\"><\/div>\n\n\n<![endif]--><a href=\"https:\/\/cta-redirect.hubspot.com\/cta\/redirect\/5278241\/26e69232-c009-4130-a9a9-c5b1c44d4013\"><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"hs-cta-img-26e69232-c009-4130-a9a9-c5b1c44d4013\" class=\"hs-cta-img\" style=\"border-width: 0px;\" src=\"https:\/\/no-cache.hubspot.com\/cta\/default\/5278241\/26e69232-c009-4130-a9a9-c5b1c44d4013.png\" alt=\"fraud study us\" \/><\/a><\/span><script charset=\"utf-8\" src=\"https:\/\/js.hscta.net\/cta\/current.js\"><\/script><script type=\"text\/javascript\"> hbspt.cta.load(5278241, '26e69232-c009-4130-a9a9-c5b1c44d4013', {\"useNewLoader\":\"true\",\"region\":\"na1\"}); <\/script><\/span><!-- end HubSpot Call-to-Action Code --><\/p>\n<h2>How can you protect your business against cyber fraud?<\/h2>\n<p>In 2022, 56% of US companies were targeted by at least one fraud attempt.
