Ingram Micro urges partners to be aware and to take action against fraudsters

In a letter shared with its partners, Ingram Micro offered practical advice to help them mitigate fraudulent behaviour to protect "our company, your company, and your clients.". "We're seeing instances of fraud experienced by our partners from their long-term Existing customers (who have had their email breached) as well as from 'New customers' that are 100 percent fraudulent," said Ingram Micro Director, Cyber Security Division - META Marc Kassis in the letter.. "As a best practice, perform an internet search on the company name and check their email address against the known company domain," said Kassis in the letter.. Perform an internet search on the company and check the domain website against the domain email address.. Sometimes the scammers are also sliding into the daily conversations between Ingram Micro and its partners, according to Kassis..
