Dear Valued Client,
We are reaching out to share an important reminder about email security and how to remain vigilant against phishing attempts.
Phishing emails continue to become more sophisticated and are often designed to appear as though they come from trusted individuals or organizations. In some cases, these messages may request changes to banking or payment information or ask for urgent action.
We believe proactive communication and awareness are key to helping protect our clients.
What to watch for:
- Requests to change banking or payment information
- Urgent or time-sensitive language that pressures immediate action
- Subtle differences in email signatures or formatting
- Spelling or character inconsistencies (for example, the number “1” used in place of the letter “L”)
- Sender email addresses that closely resemble but do not exactly match known contacts
These types of messages are often part of what is known as role-based phishing, where attackers target individuals or teams responsible for financial or administrative functions.
Best practices to stay protected:
- Always verify requests involving financial or account changes using a secondary method, such as a known phone number.
- Be cautious with unexpected requests, even when they appear to come from a familiar contact.
- Encourage team members to pause and confirm before taking action.
We want to reassure you that we take security seriously and continually review our practices to help safeguard our clients and partners. Staying informed and attentive is one of the most effective ways to reduce risk.
If you ever receive a message that appears to be from us and seems unusual or raises questions, please contact us directly using established contact information.
Thank you for your continued trust and partnership.
