Stopping Conveyancing Fraud
Blocked 3 fraud attempts & achieved SRA compliance.
The challenge
What they were dealing with
A busy conveyancing practice in Shropshire was concerned about the rising threat of email fraud. They'd heard horror stories of firms losing hundreds of thousands in completion fund diversions. Their existing email had no advanced protection, and staff weren't trained to spot sophisticated phishing attempts.
Risk: Conveyancing Fraud & Data Breach
What we did
The solution
We migrated them to Microsoft 365 Business Premium with Safe Links, Safe Attachments, and anti-phishing policies. We configured external email warning banners and implemented message encryption for sensitive correspondence. Critically, we trained all staff on Friday afternoon fraud tactics and established a verbal verification policy for any bank detail changes.
