The March newsletter highlights key findings from the Business Conditions Survey by BusinessNSW, noting a rise in business confidence but concerns about cost-of-living pressures, supply chain disruptions, and job application challenges. It introduces the ViewJobs platform, a regionally focused recruitment initiative, and features an article on Business Email Compromise scams by Chamber Director Craig Clarke. The newsletter also covers the success of the Junior Chamber's long lunch and includes insights from Brooke Southwell on collaboration in business. Additionally, it teases the upcoming 2024 Think Local Shop Local Campaign and the State of the City Leaders Forum.
Scams targeting businesses are on the rise, with reported losses of $23.2 million last year, according to the ACCC. Payment redirection scams, known as Business Email Compromise, pose a significant threat. Scammers compromise emails through credential phishing or stuffing, intercepting invoices and redirecting payments to their accounts. To safeguard against this, businesses should verify new payment details with vendors through trusted channels. Training staff to recognize and report suspicious emails is crucial. Implementing multifactor authentication and keeping antivirus software updated adds an extra layer of security. If a business email is compromised, immediate steps include changing passwords, contacting the financial institution, and reporting the scam to Scamwatch and Report Cyber.

Tamworth Event Planners and Rowdy Crowd Cups were praised for their flawless execution. The committee bids farewell to outgoing Chair Shonia Poole, acknowledging her extraordinary leadership, and welcomes new Chair Josie Grady with enthusiasm. The committee thanks all contributors and looks forward to building on their successes in the future.
