Russian sanctions impacting fraud attempts

Published on: 3rd March, 2022

Fraudology is presented by Sardine.

On today's episode, Karisse discusses:

  • Russian sanctions impact online fraud rates; what is being targeted and what to watch for as cyber criminals based in Russia seek ways to monetize American credentials to get around sanctions imposed on Russia
  • Specific ATO (Account Takeover) methods to be aware of; (To hear Eli Dominitz, CEO of Q6 Cyber further discuss how ATOs via malware work, listen to Episode 13 of Fraudology from 12-03-2020)
  • Information about the latest scammer/"con woman"/fraudster to make headlines: Danielle MIller; unlike Anna Delvey or Simon Leviev, Danielle did not personally know most of her victims. Instead, she chose to steal identities and make high-dollar purchases in their names & on their credit cards. She also received 4 PPP loans totaling ~ $1 Million USD in 2020; Read the full story here: https://nymag.com/intelligencer/article/danielle-miller-scammer.html

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!
