Similar thing happened to a Hong Kong company. It’s likely these are just tech illiterate people who were unfortunately duped.

Last year, a finance officer at a Singaporean multinational paid out nearly $500,000 to scammers during what he believed was a video call with company leadership.
My bet is that that is just his very plausible cover story. He’s the one that got the money.

Sadly it’s a combination of tech illiteracy and a culture of not questioning your boss.
