Business email scams drive most U.S. cyber losses

29 September 2026 · Source: themercury.com

A recent analysis of FBI complaint data found that business email compromise was the most common and most costly cybercrime affecting U.S. businesses in 2025. The scams led to more than $3 billion in reported losses across 24,768 incidents, far more than losses tied to data breaches, ransomware, or intellectual property theft. This matters because these attacks often look like routine payment requests from vendors, executives, or business partners, which makes them hard to spot before money is sent. A service like Sender Registry helps businesses check sender identity and spot suspicious email patterns, reducing the chance that a fake invoice or payment change request reaches the wrong person.
