Suspicious of an email you received asking for private business information?
Alarmed when someone calls you claiming to be your local bank, but you are unsure?
Receive a pop up claiming your computer has been hacked?
All of these are questions that you should think about as a business owner before you provide any confidential information to a third party. Now is especially the time to be wary, as scams are on the rise. Of late, here at NorthStar, we have been receiving calls from a fair number of clients experiencing fraud attempts or scamming games. One such instance is fresh in my mind as it occurred just this week.
