Don't feel bad: the big guys get hit, too ...

OK, so someone in your small or medium sized business got caught by a phishing scam, and you lost a bit of money. Don't feel bad. It happens to everyone.

Including giants like Google and Facebook.

Evaldas Rimasauskas pleaded guilty to stealing $23 million from Google and as much as $98 million from Facebook, using fake companies and fake invoices pretending to come from/be dealing with a real computer supplier.

@rsladeSuch is the human condition, they will take risks to make gains, whilst taking a risk - which given the amount of user behavioural analysis and Anti-Money Laundering (AML) or Know Your Client (KYC) going on will hopefully shorten the time to Identify, Protect, Detect and Respond - with the advert of Machine Learning, and other data analysis techniques advancing all the time - hopefully this time to detect and respond will be shorten.
