Why Email Security Training Alone Won’t Stop Payment Fraud

Petri Dish

LISTEN ON:

For years, organisations have trained employees to spot fraud by looking for suspicious emails, spelling mistakes, unusual links, and other obvious warning signs. But as attackers have started using AI, many of those indicators have lost their value.

In this episode of Petri Dish, I’m joined by Shai Gabay, CEO and Co-Founder of Trustmi, to discuss why traditional fraud awareness may be falling behind modern threats, how attackers are exploiting organisational workflows rather than technical vulnerabilities.
