Is that urgent payment request really from your CEO?

With today's AI tools, attackers can clone voices, mimic writing styles, and create convincing emails that look completely legitimate.

That urgent request to change bank details or send a rush payment may not be coming from who you think.

The good news? The best defense isn't spotting the fake. It's verifying the process.

🔵 Confirm payment requests through a separate communication channel
🔵 Verify bank account changes using a known phone number on file
🔵 Require additional approval for high-value transactions
🔵 Train employees to question unusual or urgent requests

Your eyes and ears can be fooled by AI. A strong verification process cannot.

By implementing out-of-band verification, your finance team can confidently approve payments while reducing the risk of fraud.

Contact TechNet Computing today to review your payment workflows and help protect your business from AI-powered scams.

The one Outlook rule that can save you from awkward conversations 📧

We've all done it.

Sent an email too quickly, attached the wrong file, spotted a typo after hitting send, or wished we could take back a message written in frustration.

That's where Outlook's Delay Delivery rule comes in.

Set it up once, and every email you send will sit in your Outbox for a few minutes before it's actually delivered.

That gives you a chance to:
🔵 Catch typos and mistakes
🔵 Fix missing or incorrect attachments
🔵 Double-check recipients
🔵 Reconsider emails sent in the heat of the moment

A simple 2-minute delay can prevent a lot of unnecessary headaches.

To set it up in Classic Outlook:
1️⃣ Go to File > Manage Rules & Alerts
2️⃣ Click New Rule and select Apply rule on messages I send
3️⃣ Skip the conditions so it applies to all emails
4️⃣ Check defer delivery by a number of minutes and set it to 2
5️⃣ Save the rule

Unlike Outlook's Recall feature, this works before the email leaves your inbox.

💡 Small productivity tips can make a big difference. Contact TechNet Computing for more technology tips and business IT solutions.
