What does Regions say?

If the BEC scam ended with a fraudulent wire transfer, request that your financial institution contact the bank or institution that received the transfer and request a recall or reversal.

Even if you report the event promptly, there is no guarantee that the funds are recoverable.

please contact a Regions Banker at 1-800-REGIONS (734-4667).

What can an outside reading tell you after a payment fraud?

An outside reading cannot see your mailboxes, so it cannot tell you whether someone signed in to one.

It can show three things that bear on how a fraud like this reaches a firm: whether your DMARC record tells mail servers to refuse mail forged in your name, which look-alike domains of yours are registered, and which addresses at your domain are listed in breach data from other services.
