Freshwater Cyber’s shared fraud watch for congregations
A free service for churches, mosques, synagogues, temples, and other congregations to report suspicious messages, receive plain-English analysis, and hear about fraud campaigns affecting nearby communities.
Field notes
The service combines forwarded-message analysis with a passive exposure review of public pages, DNS, public records, and known-breach data. Its central data model groups reports by county to identify campaigns that move between congregations, while the homepage says individual congregations remain unnamed. The described workflow starts with an automated look, adds a human-checked written report, and can escalate evidence-supported account reports to providers.
