How Telleroo alerted APH Accountants to a fraulent payment before it was sent
Paul White, Director of APH Accountants received an email from an employee asking to update their bank details. This was only discovered to be fraudulent when the employee messaged saying she had not been paid.
Paul says, "The email was incredible. I looked back at it and realised there was just one small letter change in the email address. Otherwise, it looked completely legit. I still can't believe it, things like this don't normally get past us."
"Telleroo emailed literally as I was looking into the payment. It was a great catch by the team. They detected that it was fraudulent, and they flagged it to me, and they stopped the payment from being sent. Telleroo gives us that extra layer of security that you don’t get with a bank.”
Authorised Push Payment (APP) fraud is a type of scam where a person or business is tricked into willingly sending money to a fraudster. In most cases, the scam impersonates a trusted supplier, colleague, or business to elicit a payment to the wrong bank account. Because the payment is “authorised” by the sender, it’s harder to recover the funds, posing a serious risk for businesses.
APP fraud often involves fake invoices, urgent requests, or bank detail changes that appear legitimate. Businesses can reduce their risk by using invoice verification tools, confirming payment details, and having clear approval processes in place.
Invoice verification is the process of checking if an invoice is genuine before paying it. It helps protect businesses from fraud by identifying red flags like new supplier bank accounts, suspicious email addresses, or unusual payment details. Invoice verification is also an important process to ensure the contents of an invoice are accurate.
Invoice fraud can result in significant financial loss if not caught in time. Here are a few ways to reduce the risk to your business:
- Confirm new or updated payment details independently before sending payments
- Use software to flag suspicious payments
- Establish multi-step approval workflows for all payments
- Train your team to spot common red flags such as unexpected payment requests
Using a solution like Telleroo’s invoice verification tool can help your business detect fraudulent invoices before money leaves your account.
When you input supplier company name and sender email address we'll check these for signs of fraud. Specifically, we'll look at whether the company is newly registered, which can be a red flag, or if the email comes from a generic domain like Gmail rather than a verified business address. The tool then provides a risk signal, helping you assess whether the invoice may be suspicious. It’s a fast and simple way to improve your supplier due diligence process and reduce the risk of fraud.
