Learning From the Past; Preparing For the Future w/ Robert Capps

Published on: 9th August, 2022

Fraudology is presented by Sardine.

Robert Capps joins Karisse for what was going to be an "ask us anything" episode. But, based on the tenor of the questions we received, and the overall state of the tech world, they end up talking about the uncertainty many fraud-fighters & other industries in tech are consumed with.

  • Why is this time different than the last recession? And why are we seeing some of our peers being laid off when we all know online fraud is growing & changing quickly?
  • Robert shares that he has survived many downturns & provides advice to those in the space who were laid off, feeling job insecurity, or are feeling a need for a change, but wonder if they should stay in a more secure company.
  • Both Karisse & Robert share some career advice and then start to talk about the importance of communicating the value, importance, and impact of fraud prevention and Trust & Safety within your company. (Year-round, but especially now)

To hear A LOT more details on that last point, along with several real-life examples & advice in communicating with leadership & stakeholders within your business, subscribe to the Fraudology podcast to be alert when Part 2 of this conversation is released next Tuesday, 8-16-22.

About the Podcast

Fraudology Podcast with Karisse Hendrick
Join Fraud Fighter Karisse Hendrick twice a week for deep dive interviews and weekly fraud news.
If you work in online fraud prevention, chances are you've caught the "bug". The bug that makes you passionate about identifying & preventing cybercriminals from getting away with stealing from your company, or your client's companies. Most people who have made cyber-fraud their career have the perfect balance of analytical and social skills, a strong sense of justice and the curiosity that will drive you to go down every path of information until you "crack the case".

Just like sociology is the study of social behavior, and psychology is the study of human behavior, Fraudology is the science and study of fraud.

On the Fraudology podcast, long-time online fraud expert, Karisse Hendrick will dive into all areas of Fraudology from the perspective of a fraud-fighter. With guests ranging from former cybercriminals to fraud-fighters at Fortune 500 companies to law enforcement and others, you will no doubt be entertained, while learning a lot about fraud & other forms of abuse prevention!
