Defeat the Fraudsters: Protect Yourself Against Account Fraud

They can then use the information to perform a number of different fraudulent acts, including transferring funds, modifying personal information, and adding other “authorized” users. Combating this type of fraud requires understanding and action steps to make sure your business or organization is not at risk.
