Watch out for payment fraud

A common scam goes like this: an email arrives with a request saying that a contact now has a new bank account and asking you to pay there from now on. A valid SWIFT code tells you nothing about whether the request is genuine: scammers use real codes of real banks.

Do not rely on a phone number from the same email that contains the change. Urgency and requests to keep it quiet tend to be warning signs; a genuine business can wait for you to check. Already paid? Contact the bank you paid from straight away and ask them to try to recall the payment; also report it to the police.

Fraud can also target the receiver. Someone claims to have sent more than agreed and asks you to refund the difference via a different route. A payment confirmation from the sender is no proof.
