Two Businesses. Same Scam. Two Outcomes.
Two Manitoba businesses — similar size, same fully managed IT provider — were targeted by the exact same social engineering scam within weeks of each other. Fraudsters posed as a trusted supplier, requested a change to payment or shipping details, and both companies' teams believed everything checked out. It looked routine. It wasn't.
No safety net
Their loss — in the tens of thousands — came straight out of their own pocket. No recovery. No cheque. Just the bill.
Claim filed, business moved on
They reported the incident right away. Their insurer stepped in, covered the loss, and cut them a cheque for tens of thousands of dollars.
Same scam. Same "trusted" IT provider. Same size of loss. Only one business walked away whole.
"But our IT company has us covered."
A great IT provider is your defense — firewalls, monitoring, training. But even the best defense doesn't refund stolen money once it's gone.
Cyber insurance isn't a replacement for good IT. It's the financial safety net for when someone still gets through — and someone almost always eventually does.
Ask yourself: would your business survive writing that cheque yourself?
