Accounts payable fraud involves cybercriminals or bad actors targeting the AP function directly, through fake or altered invoices, impersonated vendor communications, or fraudulent bank-detail change requests, to deceive AP teams into making unauthorised payments or sharing sensitive information.

Eftsure reduces the risk of AP fraud by providing real-time verification of vendor and payment details before funds are released. Our system continuously monitors and verifies vendor identities, bank details, and communications, ensuring that only legitimate instructions are followed.

Signs of an AP fraud attempt may include unexpected payment requests, changes in vendor bank details, invoices for goods or services that weren't ordered, or discrepancies in vendor communication. Eftsure's system helps detect these anomalies and flags suspicious activity.

Eftsure secures the payment process by verifying vendor identities and cross-checking bank details against our extensive database before any payment is released. This process helps ensure that any instructions or requests received are genuine and not the result of fraud.

In addition to using Eftsure's verification solution, businesses can protect themselves by:

• Implementing strong cybersecurity measures.
• Training AP teams to recognise and report suspicious activity.
• Establishing clear protocols for verifying invoices and bank-detail change requests.
• Regularly updating and monitoring payment and security systems.

Eftsure is designed to integrate with your existing systems with minimal disruption. Our team provides comprehensive support throughout the integration process.
