Barely starting out the week, then dealing with this 🫠

Got an email from my boss asking me to pay an invoice to a vendor we don't use much. Came from his actual address, amount was normal, nothing obviously off. But the way it was written just felt weird — not really how he usually phrases stuff. Ended up texting him before I did anything and he had no idea what I was talking about.

Turned out to be some kind of spoofed email situation. But I almost just processed it because everything looked fine on paper.

Does anyone else pick up on that kind of thing? Like do you trust that feeling when something reads a little off, or do you just go by whether the request itself looks legit?
