Fraud Playing Offense: Red Flags and Defense Tactics to Avoid Getting Burned

Everyone is familiar with the big-name corporate and financial frauds that make national news.  But although high-profile names like Enron and Madoff make headlines, businesses like yours are getting hit day after day with schemes and scams that are less obvious but every bit as onerous.  From traditional financial statement fraud, to sophisticated e-mail spoofing schemes, to “old school” credit fraud tactics such as same name and ship-to scams, devious charlatans are just a mouse click away from wreaking havoc on your bottom line – and, in some instances, even the viability of your business as a whole.  This program deals with credit and payment fraud, the schemes modern fraudsters frequently employ, red flags and warning signs, and the defensive tactics, tips, and tools to protect yourself and your business from the havoc that fraudsters seek to create.  The program also deals with increased fraud risk arising from remote work and actual fraud war stories by credit professionals.  The results of prior polling of trade creditors on fraud issues are also discussed.

(FREE!) PCI Compliance 101

Is your company Payment Card Industry (PCI) compliant? The PCI Data Security Standard applies to every organization or merchant that accepts, transmits or stores payment card information. In other words, if any of your customers pays using a credit card or debit card then the PCI DSS requirements apply. Being “compliant” means that your company meets all of the requirements laid out in the standard.

If your business fails to become PCI compliant, it could be at greater risk from the growing threat of payment card data breaches and theft, which may result in substantial penalties, fraud and charge backs, as well as legal costs and lost customers. Join Fiserv’s Adam Hollis for a timely and engaging discussion on the importance of PCI compliance for all businesses as he discusses PCI resources, requirements and the importance of certifying that your business is PCI compliant.
