Isabela's wire brief updated 14 sec ago

22 of 23 wires today cleared all my checks — vendor identity, banking history, payment patterns, SoD on approvers, and amount reasonableness.

One wire I am holding: $1,247,800 to Brightworks Industrial. Three signals concern me. Worth a 60-second look before release.

Recommend investigating before today's 14:00 release window.

Wire Sentinel held this wire 3 RED FLAGS

Detected during pre-release scan · all flags fired within 800ms
1
Bank account changed 22 hours ago. Brightworks's PNC account on file was updated yesterday at 16:08 ET. The ACH instructions you're about to wire to are different from any prior payment to this vendor. Source: PNC vendor master · change event #PNC-VC-20260508-44
2
No callback verification on file. Halcomb's Vendor Bank Verification SOP requires a phone callback to a known vendor contact whenever banking details change. I cannot find a callback ticket in ServiceNow for this change. Policy: SOP-AP-014 · ServiceNow queue VendorBankChange searched 13:53 ET

This would be the first payment to the new account — and it's $1.25M. Brightworks has been a vendor for 4 years with 31 prior wires averaging $42K. A 30× larger first payment to a brand-new account on Day 1 fits the textbook business-email-compromise pattern. Pattern matches: BEC vendor takeover · 2024 FBI IC3 typology

Reasoning complete

Any one of these flags would warrant a pause. The combination is consistent with a vendor email compromise attempting to redirect payment. The threat actor likely intercepted the bank-change request, slipped past the callback control, and timed the diversion to the next large invoice.

I have not released the wire. Devon's request and Aaron's approval are both valid — neither would have known about the missing callback without me surfacing it. That's exactly the gap Wire Sentinel exists to close.

Recommendation: Let me assemble the full evidence chain across Fusion, PNC, ServiceNow, email, and the vendor onboarding folder so you can decide in 30 seconds.

Resolution Summary
From flagged wire to confirmed fraud + auditor-ready evidence: 28 minutes.
Three signals fired simultaneously. Wire Sentinel paused the release, assembled evidence across 5 systems, surfaced the BEC pattern in plain English, and guided Aaron to the right callback number — the one from the original 2022 onboarding, not the one in the fraudulent email.
Without Wire Sentinel
$1.25M loss
Wire releases at 14:00. Funds land in fraudster's JPMorgan account. By the time Brightworks asks "where's our payment?" 5 days later, the money is gone. FBI IC3 average recovery on BEC wires: 14% within 72 hours, near-zero after.
