My business email was hacked — is my finance account at risk?

A hacked business email is serious because password resets and alerts often flow through it. Secure the email, then lock down your finance account.

What's happening

Email is the master key to many accounts: whoever controls it can trigger password resets and read your alerts. If your business email is compromised, an attacker could try to reset your finance login or quietly watch for opportunities. Treat it as urgent.

What to do

First, regain control of the email and secure it with its own strong password and 2FA. Then, on your Credit Corp account, change your password, confirm 2FA (ideally an authenticator app, not email codes), review sessions, and check no reset was triggered. Report concerns via reporting suspected fraud.
