Published on: 26th April, 2022

Fraudology is presented by Sardine.

On this episode of the Fraudology podcast, we are joined by Ian Mitchell, a Managing Partner at Omega Fincrime Consultancy and the Founder of The Knoble, a non-profit focused on identifying & preventing the human impact of financial crime.

In this episode, we discuss:

  • Some of the lessons & observations of a 20-year fraud-fighting veteran of banking fraud
  • How corporate burnout led Ian to find a newfound passion for seeking justice & helping others
  • How financial fraud/crimes fund crimes that impact vulnerable populations of people such as human trafficking, child exploitation, elder abuse/scams, and financial scams, and how fraud-fighting skills & data analytics can help identify these patterns of behavior.
  • How other fraud-fighters can join this quest to create impact in addition to reducing the cost of financial fraud to your company.
  • In addition to being a fraud-fighter and the founder of a non-profit, Ian is also an accomplished singer/songwriter. In a Fraudology first, he ends our conversation with his song "Old Dirt Road"

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!
