CEO fraud
payment fraud, business email compromise
CEO fraud involves posing as a company director, a supplier or a client in order to obtain an urgent bank transfer or a change of bank details.
In practice
It often relies on a compromised mailbox or a spoofed domain. The countermeasures: check any unusual payment request by phone, and protect your domain with SPF, DKIM and DMARC.
