Why I stopped pushing wire transfers for everything, a 5 month reversal

I used to tell every small business owner to use wire transfers for big purchases, figured it was the only safe way. Then one of my regulars in Austin lost $3,800 to a same-day wire scam where the recipient's account looked legit but got flagged 4 days later. What convinced me to switch was seeing how ACH with a 2 day hold and a confirmation callback caught the fraud before money moved. Has anyone else had a vendor push back when you asked for a slower payment method?

Tell your vendor to eat the extra day or find a new one.
