Be sure to reconcile your accounts frequently, preferably every 30-60 days, to catch any possible fraudulent activity.
Ways to prevent fraud
You can prevent fraud from happening to you by:
- Using only your personal email for subscriptions or giveaways, never your work email.
- Logging into your work account through only secure networks, never through public insecure networks or on a public device.
- Reporting emails that are suspicious as phishing through your email application.
- Logging into your bank through only secure networks, never through public insecure networks or on a public device.
- Sending confidential or private information through secure channels, never through email.
If your email or bank account has been compromised.
If you know or suspect that your company's email or bank account has been compromised, email:
- Accounts Payable and the Accounts Payable Supervisor, stating the kind of fraud that's taken place.
- Your internal Peel Region partner.
