Shark Tank’s Barbara Corcoran has lost almost $400,000 to cybercriminals after her office recently fell victim to a phishing scam. The incident began last week when Corcoran’s bookkeeper received an email regarding an invoice related to a real estate renovation. Corcoran explained why her bookkeeper didn’t find the email to be suspicious to PEOPLE, saying: “I lost the $388,700 as a result of a fake email chain sent to my company. It was an invoice supposedly sent by my assistant to my bookkeeper approving the payment for a real estate renovation. There was no reason to be suspicious as I invest in a lot of real estate.”
