FYI... take this as you wish..
we had a scam tested on us yesterday... and I won't name names... but they basically contacted our accounting department.. with:
please stop payment on these check numbers... and listed a list of checks... then gave a real name of a head contact at the company... and wanted the check re-issued to that name and sent to a NY city address... scary thing is.. they had the actual check numbers.. and password to access the account.. and a head guys name...
anyway... they had already gotten in and edited the info on that account... since they had the user/pass...
lucky for us we were able to catch it... via the correspondence... and contact the "company"..
all is fixed now.. and we have a agreement to have a personal phone call from them to change anything on their account..
anyway.. may be a good idea to check your own accounts to see if any info has been changed...
cheers
