Scam Secrets – At a first glance, I thought this series would just be a public service podcast telling you how to avoid some pretty obvious scams. Advice like “don’t open an email attachment from a person you don’t know” and “don’t yell your PIN number in public.”
But it’s far more compelling than that (and, as it turns out, so are the scammers). The show digs into elaborate cons that aren’t easy to spot, from fake companies setting up inside people’s homes without their knowledge to devastating long-distance romance scams.
What elevates it further is its presenting team: Shari Vahl, criminologist Dr Elisabeth Carter and a former prolific fraudster turned consultant for the police Alex Wood, so you’re able to see each scam through a different perspective.
