Be Alert to Cyber Fraud: A Warning to Clients

Clients and law firms must be vigilant of cyber fraud at all times

We are keen to ensure that our clients don’t accidentally send funds to imposters pretending to be us.

Always remember:

Our bank account details will not be changed at the last minute.
You can protect yourself by making a transfer of a small amount prior to the main transfer and checking it has been properly received.
Be wary of any request to change payment details
if the solicitor who has requested funds is not well known to you, or you are not sure if the request is genuine, or if you just want to be cautious we would recommend taking steps to verify the solicitor and their details (including bank details) before sending any money.
You can check this by calling us and only speaking to someone you know and checking that they know enough about the transaction so that they are legitimate and checking the bank details with them.

Some Do’s and Don’ts:

Do not send funds to a bank account other than the one you are notified of at the outset;
Do not use insecure public Wi-Fi systems to check emails when house purchases are ongoing as fraudsters often use these to steal information;
Do not post statuses on social media about buying/selling your house or getting a mortgage. Fraudsters may get hold of this information and so become aware that the next step will probably be a large financial transaction;
Do use strong passwords for your accounts and have antivirus installed on your devices;
Do contact the firm at the telephone number that has been provided at the outset and not to rely on number changes stated in emails
Do be suspicious of emails that do not sound right, such as those that employ incorrect use of terminology or bad grammar; and
Do be wary of opening attachments.
