Since the Covid-19 pandemic, cyber scams have surged across the Mekong region. Abandoned casinos and hotels have been turned into “scam compounds” serving as bases for romance scams, fake call centres, Ponzi schemes, and voice-phishing operations. These schemes have tricked hundreds of people to transfer money into mule accounts.But the problem goes far deeper. Criminal networks are profiting from tax evasion, smuggling, and large-scale embezzlement. In 2024, Vietnamese billionaire Truong My Lan was sentenced to death (since converted to life in prison) for embezzling $12 billion from the Saigon Commercial Bank.But what's driving the rise in financial crime across Southeast Asia?

As summer holiday season gets into full swing and the hunt for the best deals ramps up, FraudSMART is issuing a timely reminder: be vigilant against a seasonal rise in travel scams. FraudSMART, the fraud awareness initiative developed by Banking & Payments Federation Ireland (BPFI), warns that these scams are becoming increasingly sophisticated, with fraudsters capitalising on the demand for last-minute getaways, particularly touting 'recent cancellations' or 'limited time offers' at heavily discounted rates. Holidaymakers are being lured in with these tempting offers and discounts, often through fake websites, online ads and social media links. To help consumers navigate online travel bookings safely, FraudSMART is urging every holidaymaker to utilise a free tool available on the FraudSMART website: Scamchecker.ie. This essential resource allows you to quickly verify the legitimacy of any website or link before making a booking, acting as your crucial first line of defence against online fraud. FRAUDSMART'S TOP TIPS FOR A SECURE SUMMER: Book Smart: Always use trusted and well-known booking websites or travel agents. Verify before you buy! Before you commit, check the link on Scamchecker.ie. This free tool is your essential safeguard against fake websites and fraudulent offers. Be Wary of Unsolicited Offers: Exercise caution with unsolicited emails or social media ads offering cheap holiday deals. Always verify special offers by visiting the official website of the travel company, rather than clicking on embedded links in an email or advert. Avoid Bank Transfers: Avoid making payments through bank transfers, as these are difficult to trace and recover. Use secure Wi-Fi: Do not use unsecured or public Wi-Fi networks when making payments; switch to 3G/4G on your phone if necessary. Keep Records: Print or save a copy of your order and purchase details. Update Security: Ensure your computer's security is up to date with reliable antivirus and browser software. Protect Your Card: Keep your card in your sights and protect your PIN - never share or write down your PIN details. Niamh Davenport, Head of Financial Crime at BPFI and lead for the FraudSMART campaign, said: "As people across Ireland plan last-minute getaways, fraudsters are working just as hard to take advantage of the holiday rush. These scams can be incredibly convincing and come from multiple sources including fake and copycat websites, convincing online adverts and social media posts. However, once payment is made - often by bank transfer - the so-called agent or website disappears, leaving victims without a booking and out of pocket. Some victims may even receive a fake booking confirmation, only to discover the scam after they have travelled to the destination and find the property doesn't exist when they arrive." Ms Davenport added: "However, there are a number of red flags to look out for, such as being asked to pay by bank transfer or being pressurised to act quickly. Our Scamchecker.ie tool gives consumers a simple, effective, and free way to double-check the legitimacy of a website or link before making a booking. If you pause before you pay, and use Scamchecker.ie, it can be the difference between the holiday of a lifetime or a holiday disaster and significant financial loss." FraudSMART is encouraging holidaymakers to make Scamchecker.ie the first stop before booking any holiday deal online. If you suspect you have been scammed, contact your bank immediately and report the incident to the Gardaí.

Coming along almost 9 years after the original, Gavin O'Connor's The Accountant 2 chronicles the continuing adventures of Christian Wolff, the autistic number-cruncher slash hitman who is brought in to solve the murder of retired Financial Crimes detective J.K. Simmons and crack a human trafficking ring with the help of his estranged assassin brother Braxton (Jon Bernthal) and his silent partner Justine who runs a secret school of autistic hacker children who can break into any computer system to help him solve the case.Whereas the first film was so serious in tone it lapsed into unintentional comedy, the sequel doubles down not only on the laughs (and convoluted plotting) but also on the controversial portrayal of autism as a superpower to create an equally loopy thriller / hangout film that forges the way to this becoming a regular franchise, and stands as a necessary cultural corrective to Robert F. Kennedy Jr's ongoing real-life demonization of people with autism.

Nasdaq Verafin's EVP and Head of Financial Crime Technology, Stephanie Champion, discusses their 2024 Global Crime Report, highlighting the key concerns of AML professionals and how to approach the need for action.

This week, John and Elliot discuss the SEC's statement on offerings and registrations of securities in the crypto asset markets, the UK requirement for identity verification for corporate directors and controlling owners, FinCEN's renewal of geographic targeting orders relating to residential real estate, FCA's updated Financial Crime Guide, and other items impacting the financial crime prevention community.

Documentary filmmaker and economist James Patrick joins the program to shed light on a critical shift in global finance: the systematic transfer of stock and bond ownership from individuals to centralized institutions. According to Patrick, investors no longer directly own the securities they purchase—instead, they hold paper claims while actual ownership resides with financial intermediaries. He argues this transformation was not accidental, but rather a calculated move to strip individuals of real asset control, amounting to what he calls the largest financial crime in history. Patrick's research is featured in The Great Taking, and those interested in learning more—or in reclaiming personal ownership rights—can visit thegreattakingreport.com.

David Tyree joins Dr. Sandie Morgan as the two discuss how financial crime investigations can disrupt human trafficking by following the money trail and identifying the financial networks that support trafficking operations. David Tyree David Tyree has over 25 years of experience as a DEA Agent and financial crime investigator. He has led major investigations into money laundering and drug trafficking and is a recognized expert in financial crime investigations. He trains law enforcement officers on detecting money laundering and asset forfeiture. Recently, he participated in the Follow the Money Roundtable with Valid8 at Vanguard University. Key Points Financial investigations provide a new way to combat human trafficking by identifying and disrupting illicit financial networks. Traffickers exploit financial tools like Venmo, Cash App, and Zelle to move money, making it critical for law enforcement to track these transactions. Financial crime investigations allow law enforcement to build strong cases that do not rely solely on victim testimony, reducing re-traumatization. Traffickers often control victims financially, making it difficult for them to escape without outside intervention. Asset forfeiture is a powerful tool that law enforcement can use to take away traffickers' financial resources and prevent them from reconstituting their operations. Banks and financial institutions play a crucial role in identifying suspicious activity, such as rapid money transfers, and working with law enforcement to stop trafficking networks. Understanding financial literacy is key to preventing individuals from becoming vulnerable to trafficking and exploitation. Law enforcement needs to build trust with victims by offering support rather than immediately pressuring them to testify. Successful investigations require collaboration between financial institutions, law enforcement, and victim service organizations. The ability to follow the money provides a tangible way to prosecute traffickers and provide financial restitution to victims. Financial restitution is often the most meaningful form of justice for survivors, as it helps them rebuild their lives. Educating financial institutions and law enforcement about trafficking-related financial patterns can significantly improve prevention and intervention efforts.
