The incidence of hacking and cyber scam events is on the increase across the commercial business sector. The Queensland Law Society has urged all members to be aware of fraudulent activity around electronic transactions. Hickey Lawyers urges you to be aware of this and to take reasonable precautions when remitting monies electronically. Where you are requested to deposit money (from us or someone else) we suggest you call the person making the request by telephone, to confirm that it is an authentic request and that the account details communicated to you are legitimate and correct.
