Fraudology is presented by Sardine.
In this episode of Fraudology, Karisse highlights 3 fraud stories that you will want to be aware of. -Either for awareness, or possibly for a bit of "fraud nerd" comic relief.
First starting out with why the promised episode of an interview with a "special guest", Karisse's daughter has been replaced with an episode of Fraud News for this week. But, this episode WILL be coming soon to Fraudology, where Karisse's teenager will share her own experiences as a "fraud-fighter's daughter, the best advice her mom has given about internet safety, and she'll answer questions submitted by Fraudology listeners (and some of their kids!).
This week, the news was a mix of terrifying or puzzling revelations about professional cybercrime rings, and a new Visa card that will most likely be attractive to them. But, for the 1st story, which was first shared in the weekly newsletter published by Frank McKenna, of FrankonFraud.com, was enough for Karisse to bring back a popular segment from the past. "What The Fraud?!"
From how Chinese Scammers are hiring creative thinkers to design new scam MOs, to the newest Visa Card marketing itself as a "No KYC Visa card" (Is this Legal? Will it Last?), and a Celebrity Plastic Surgeon in Beverly Hills is hit with a two-fer: The "old" data breach + financial fraud trick. -You'll hear highlights of each article, along with thoughts, questions, and additional commentary from a fraud expert; She'll also share why these are stories for online fraud-fighters to be aware of.
