The #FBI recently worked with domestic and foreign partners on Operation reWired, a large-scale, coordinated effort to dismantle international business email compromise (BEC) schemes that resulted in 281 arrests worldwide. ow.ly/lyO150w4IA8
Criminals who perpetrate BEC schemes not only target companies but also individuals. They scam victims by convincing them to make wire transfers to bank accounts they control or to mail checks or gift cards. 
To protect yourself from BEC schemes, the FBI recommends you verify financial requests received via email, regularly monitor financial transactions, and keep software and systems up to date. You can report cyber fraud at ic3.gov. ow.ly/d/8lO0
