I’m torn between calling and forwarding it to the finance team. I guess it depends on how urgent it really seems.

I remember we discussed that confirming requests like this is crucial, so I’d lean towards calling the CFO to verify.

This reminds me of a practice question we did about phishing emails. I feel like ignoring it could be risky too, though.
