The everyday business of moving money by wire-transfer has become fraught
with danger. An email arrives from the company president, or a vendor, client,
or colleague, instructing where the money for a transaction is to be wired. But
the email is fake, part of a sophisticated scam involving eavesdropping and
manipulation of messages. If money is mistakenly wired to the scammer, will
there be insurance coverage? Is this a kind of computer fraud? A kind of theft?
Forgery? Professional malpractice?
The panelists will provide an overview of recent decisions from around the
country in cases where businesses who have encountered these “attacks” seek
coverage under various kinds of insurance policies. The panel will highlight the
key differences in policy language, and variations in facts, that can make the
difference, for insurer and policyholder, between winning and
losing.
