On March 4, 2025,  M&T Bank’s expert panel talked about the latest fraud tactics used to mine sensitive information through different data gathering and social engineering tactics, including how fraudsters exploit that data to manipulate or deceive businesses and employees.

This session included a discussion on new fraud methods and topics such as:

 How vulnerable employee data can jeopardize your company’s security  measures

• Recognizing common social engineering tactics
• How to better protect your organization’s payment accounts
• Where to locate materials for employee fraud training
• How to leverage available tools to better protect your business from financial crime

“We always talk about fraudsters taking the path of least resistance. With the help of chip technology and tokenization, traditional fraud schemes are much harder for fraudsters to maximize. Instead, they look at how they can bypass that and turn to other ways, such as social engineering.”

 – Aaron Steinitz, Enterprise Fraud Policy and Governance Director, M&T Bank
