Payment redirection scams have increased five-fold this year.

The Tailem Bend Netball Club was scammed out of more than $150,000 in April after getting legitimate work done on their courts and being sent an invoice from a scammer pretending to be the contractor.

In this podcast, Jennie Lenman has a chat with President of the club Denise Edwards for an update, followed by a discussion with Robin Sands, CEO of local e-invoicing company Link 4, who's offering a free solution for Tailem Bend businesses to the growing cyber security threat.

Following an increase in online scams across the region, Starclub and Cyber X are hosting a free online cyber security webinar on Monday 21 from 7-8pm.  Find out more, including the booking link on the Starclub Murraylands Facebook page.
