Cross border wire transfers risks exposed

Nowadays, business is dominated by e-commerce and purchasing habits are trending more towards digital platforms. As per the 2018 report, a total of $423 million was lost in wire transfer scams. In 2020 the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) received more than 2.2 million reports regarding fraud. This shows that the online crime trends will only continue to grow, corroborated by the FBI’s Internet Crime Complaint Center. More than ever, online vendors must be prepared against fraud and scams as they conduct their business.

Online sellers must be careful when interacting with different suppliers overseas. A global e-commerce forecast reported that after an increase of almost 25% in cross-border e-commerce buyers in China in 2020, Asia-Pacific leads the regional rankings for retail e-commerce sales.
