Payments Fraud Detect & Prevent Check, ACH and P-Card Schemes

Recorded Session
60 Minutes

Paying vendors used to mean processing an invoice and cutting a check. Today, P-cards, ACH and wire transfers open new routes for fraudsters, and this 60-minute payments fraud webinar shows how to detect and prevent the main check, ACH and P-card schemes.

You'll look at who commits each type of payment fraud, with insight from investigations of real fraudsters, and at vendor and billing schemes that exploit weak payment controls. The session covers current electronic schemes such as ACH hijacking, spear-phishing and social engineering, plus check counterfeiting, forgery and tampering.

It also explains how to tell external schemes from internal attacks and how to run a cost-effective fraud risk assessment of the payment methods you use most.

WHY SHOULD YOU ATTEND?

Payment fraud threats change quickly. The Association for Financial Professionals (AFP) estimates that over 73% of organizations are targets of payment fraud. Falling behind can mean exposed card data, new forms of check fraud and hijacked ACH and wire accounts, by cyber-criminals or your own employees.

This session suits CPAs, controllers, CFOs, treasurers, treasury and AP staff, internal auditors, operations managers, compliance officers and security and risk managers.
