How it works
Attackers use deepfake video and voice on a Zoom or Teams call impersonating an executive, instructing finance staff to make an urgent wire transfer.
Red flags
- Unusual urgency from leadership
- Bypass of normal approval channels
- Banking details that don't match the vendor on file
Real-world example
"Pretend Zoom call from the CFO authorizing a $200k transfer to a 'new acquisition target'."
What to do
- 01Verify out of band: call the executive on their known number.
- 02Enforce dual approval on wire transfers.
- 03Train finance teams on deepfake authorization fraud.
