Payment & Banking Fraud
Payment and banking fraud recovery, pursued with precision
Payment and banking fraud covers a wide range of situations, from impersonation and invoice fraud to account takeover. Our consultants investigate the circumstances of the payment and pursue every realistic route to get it back.
Common Patterns
How payment and banking fraud typically appears
Bank transfer scams
Payments authorised after being deceived about the purpose of the transfer or the identity of the recipient.
Payment impersonation
Someone posing as a bank, government agency or well-known company to request an "urgent" payment or transfer.
Invoice and business fraud
Genuine invoices intercepted or imitated, with payment details altered so funds go to a fraudulent account.
Fake businesses
Payments made to a business or seller that never intended to deliver the promised goods or services.
Account takeover
Unauthorised access to a bank account or payment app, often following a phishing message or fake login page.
Authorised push payment fraud
Payments made by the account holder themselves, having been deceived about who they were really paying.
What we look at
We review how the payment came about: what you were told, by whom, and through what channel, along with the transfer records themselves. This helps clarify whether the case involves an authorised payment made under deception, unauthorised account access, or another form of fraud — each of which can involve different next steps.
We do not offer legal conclusions about liability, but we investigate the situation in full and pursue recovery on your behalf, using every realistic option available.
Evidence worth preserving
- Bank transfer confirmations, including dates, amounts and reference numbers
- Any messages, emails or calls that led to the payment being made
- Screenshots of invoices, websites or payment requests involved
- Records of any contact you have already had with your bank
