Americans reported $20.9 billion in cybercrime losses to the FBI in 2025.
From the FBI's 2025 Internet Crime Report:
• More than one million complaints
• Losses up 26% year over year
• Investment scams: more than $8.6 billion
• Business email compromise: more than $3 billion
• Tech support scams: more than $2 billion
• Phishing and spoofing made up nearly one fifth of complaints
Business email compromise does not need malware. It needs one convincing email asking finance to change a bank account.
Two controls stop most of it: MFA on every mailbox, and a call-back rule for any payment change, no exceptions.
Does your finance team have a written rule for verifying payment changes?
