@NorthfieldBank: Northfield warns on email scam

Northfield Bancorp, in its latest communication, has raised an alarm over the increasing threat of business email compromise scams.

These scams typically involve fraudsters impersonating coworkers or vendors to extract money or sensitive information.

The company highlights several red flags that potential victims should be aware of, including urgent emails, changes in payment information, and unusual sender addresses. To combat this threat, Northfield Bancorp advises verifying requests and double-checking details without rushing. This initiative is part of the #FraudAwarenessWeek campaign to equip businesses with the necessary knowledge to protect themselves from such fraudulent activities.

Northfield Bancorp's heightened vigilance around email compromise aligns with its ongoing focus on financial security risks, following recent concerns over the growing check fraud threat affecting businesses and individuals alike. The company's broader commitment to safeguarding its community is further reflected in its collaborative efforts, such as its partnership with the Columbian Lawyers Association to advance awareness and reinforce preventative measures.
