LawPRO Fraud Fact Sheet for Cybercrime and Bad Cheque Scams
May 17, 2018By Melanie Hodges Neufeld
Our colleagues at Avoid A Claim recently posted an announcement about the new LawPRO Fact Sheet for Cybercrime and Bad Cheque Scams. As they note:
There has been a huge growth in cybercrime attempts against lawyers and firms, who must now be on guard against bad cheque frauds, phishing, funds transfer frauds and attempts to hack firm information.
The fact sheet is intended to help lawyers spot the red flags of common online frauds.
And stay tuned for an updated real estate fraud fact sheet coming soon from LawPRO. In the meantime, check out the original Fraud Fact Sheet which contains useful information on real estate fraud.
