Manually verifying payment instructions is risky and inefficient
Digitization of push payments (wires, RTP, crypto, and more) greatly increases the threat of hijacked payments.
All it takes is a compromised email account.
You’re trying to fund an investment, distribute to an LP, or pay an invoice. But a fraudster uses the recipient’s email account to impersonate them – and get the money! These attacks, known as business email compromise (BEC), are happening every day.

FBI statistics show that confirmed losses from BEC in 2023 were $2.9B. This is only a fraction of the real amount because not all losses are reported.
Projections indicate that BEC losses will accelerate, as more and more transactions are handled electronically.
