Wire Fraud

“Wire Fraud is the use of intentional deception for monetary gain using electronic communication. But the hackers are not stealing money, victims are freely and willingly sending it to the bad guys. The root of the problem is inadequate training and tools combined with human nature, our vulnerability to being tricked”

Ryan Castle
Founder of Conduit and former FBI Special Agent
