You think you'd never fall for a scam until you meet someone like Kitboga. He's a software engineer who's turned his curiosity about online fraud into a full-time mission to outsmart scammers and protect the people they target. His YouTube channel, The Kitboga Show, has millions of followers and nearly a billion views, thanks to his mix of humor, empathy, and clever ways of exposing how scams really work. In our conversation, Kit opens up about how this all started, what it's really like to spend hours pretending to be a scam victim, and how organized crime has turned fraud into a massive global business. He shares what's changed over the years and why those old "red flags" don't always work anymore and how new tools like deepfakes and AI have made deception harder to spot than ever. Kit also talks about his newest project, Serif Secure, a free tool he created to help people clean and protect their computers after a scam attempt. He's honest, thoughtful, and a little funny even when the subject is dark. By the end, you'll see just how much one person can do to fight back. Show Notes: [01:15] Kit explains how he got into "scam baiting" and why protecting victims became personal. [03:05] He shares how streaming scam calls to friends unexpectedly turned into a viral mission. [06:07] Kit recounts nearly falling for a Discord impersonation scam himself. [09:17] We discuss how deepfakes and AI are changing what a "red flag" looks like online. [11:31] Scammers now use real services like PayPal and DocuSign to appear legitimate. [13:11] Kit explains how long-term investment and "pig-butchering" scams draw people in slowly. [15:51] Fraudsters are now going after 401(k)s and retirement funds instead of small cash grabs. [17:00] We examine how fake phone numbers and online ads make verification harder than ever. [19:56] Kit talks about the emotional toll of scam-baiting and why he sometimes needs a break. [21:51] We reflect on why decades-old scams, like Nigerian letters, still thrive today. [23:57] The scale of organized fraud is compared to global industries worth trillions. [25:41] Kit admits scams will never truly disappear—only evolve with new technology. [26:44] We learn how his team uses automation to detect and map out scam networks. [30:24] Kit describes juggling live streaming with scam calls and the role humor plays in coping. [33:37] He explains why scammers' aggression still works and what it reveals about victims. [37:00] Kit shares moving stories of victims, including a widower deceived in a romance scam. [40:00] We explore how scams erode self-trust and make victims doubt their own judgment. [42:13] Kit talks about working with law enforcement and the need for stronger collaboration. [44:10] We hear about Serif Secure, his anti-scam software designed to protect users' devices. [47:04] The software now proactively blocks remote access tools and phishing websites. [48:14] Kit warns about "scam recovery" frauds and the cruel trick that targets victims twice. [49:30] We wrap with practical advice on skepticism, security, and staying a step ahead of scammers. Thanks for joining us on Easy Prey.

Scammers have evolved far beyond poorly written emails and suspicious phone calls. Today's scammers are sophisticated, patient, and increasingly equipped with artificial intelligence (AI) tools that mimic real voices, copy official websites, and create personalized messages that look and sound legitimate. Jeremy has seen this happen all too often and will use this episode as an opportunity to help CRNAs identify red flags and apply real-world strategies to protect their future.  ⚠️ Scammers evolve fast – AI and data breaches have made fraud more convincing than ever.

When someone looks too good to be true online, they probably are! And we're putting that theory to the test. In this episode, Chris, Saied, and Rajeil invite listeners to submit the Instagram handles of “professionals” who might just be full-time finessers in disguise. From fake real estate moguls to lifestyle coaches with mysteriously rented Lambos, the crew breaks down how to spot a scammer before your wallet does.➡️ But this isn't just about calling out nonsense, it's about teaching you how to separate the signal from the scam. The hosts dissect why so many people fall for polished frauds, the psychology of digital deception, and how clout has become the new currency of credibility. It's part social experiment, part financial intervention, and fully hilarious.

Meghan and Miranda are joined by former Rep. George Santos, fresh out after 84 days served (including 41 days in solitary confinement) with his federal sentence commuted by President Trump. He walks us through the moment-to-moment reality of prison (moldy ceilings, expired food, the “shoe”), how he coped, who helped, and why he wants to channel the experience into prison reform and case review work (a la Alice Marie Johnson). We also hit: Why he says he was moved to solitary & how “protective custody” works. Mental health, re-entry, and the very relatable first shower/La Mer/skincare binge! NY politics: NYC mayoral race, congestion pricing, Kathy Hochul's vulnerabilities, and whether Elise Stefanik could win statewide Culture break: J.Lo's historic box-office flop, Katy Perry + Trudeau rumor mill, and the “diva down/diva up” jokes. On Kamala Harris' book & Pete Buttigieg: do voters care about identity, or competency? P.S. Miranda's live from Las Vegas (yes, that Flamingo sign), and the Cheryl Hines interview is up now on YouTube — thanks for the love on that one.

There are so many different ways scammers try to trick people. Some scams are easily recognizable, while others might not be so obvious. The effectiveness of a scam depends on many factors, most importantly, the victim's unawareness of the scammers' techniques. Staying aware is the number one thing we should all do to stay ahead of scammers and live with a little more peace of mind.   Links: Check out TCU University for financial education tips and resources! Follow us on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter! Learn more about Triangle Credit Union   Transcript: Welcome to Money Tip Tuesday from the Making Money Personal podcast.   We cover fraud scams and alerts on this channel a lot, but the truth of the matter is that fraud attempts are always occurring so it's imperative that everyone should stay on top of the most effective or newest trends in order to keep themselves and their loved ones safe.  This tip is going to present examples of some gut-wrenching scams individuals have experienced using three fictitious stories based on real tactics.  #1 Virtual Kidnapping  David was halfway through his morning coffee when his phone rang with a recognized number – his wife's. The voice on the other end was cold and urgent: “We have your wife. If you want to see her again, send $25,000 through Zelle—now.” Panic surged through him as the caller described personal details about his wife, making the threat feel terrifyingly real. He knew his wife was already on her way to work, but occasionally stopped at a local cafe or store to pick up a coffee or morning snack. David's hands trembled as he opened his banking app and considered sending the money, but something about the situation didn't feel right. He asked the caller to put his wife on the phone. The caller refused and instead continued to push David into sending over the money. David began to suspect he was being scammed, so he decided to hang up and call his wife's office phone. Within seconds, she answered on the other end, confused but safe. Immediately, the scam unraveled, leaving David shaken but relieved, and prompting a call to the police to report the fraud.  This kind of scam preys on fear and urgency. Scammers often use social media to gather personal details, then demand payment through apps like Venmo or Zelle, which are harder to trace. David's quick thinking saved him from a costly mistake—but not everyone is so lucky.    #2 AI Voice Cloning:  Margaret was folding laundry when her phone buzzed with a call from her daughter, Emily—at least, that's what the caller ID said. Emily's voice came through in a frantic rush: she'd been in an accident, her wallet was gone, and she needed money immediately to avoid legal trouble. “I'll send you a link,” she said, her voice trembling. “Just click it and send whatever you can through Zelle.” Margaret's heart raced. The voice sounded just like Emily's—same tone, same cadence—but something felt off. The urgency, the unfamiliar link, the fact that Emily had just messaged her hours before about coming to visit for the holidays. Margaret hesitated, then decided to try something. She remembered Emily had just told her something personal a little while ago that no one else could have known. She quickly asked to Emily to remind her the specific details about that conversation. The caller on the other line was silent for a second then came back with a different question in an attempt to deflect. Margaret was more convinced now this was a scam, so she hung up the phone and called Emily's number. When her daughter answered calmly from her apartment in Pennsylvania, the truth hit: the voice had been AI-generated, and the link was a scam.  This type of fraud is growing more sophisticated, using voice cloning and spoofed caller IDs to exploit emotional bonds. Margaret's instinct to verify, saved her from financial loss, but the experience left her shaken—and more cautious than ever. Any of us might face a scam like this in the future, so it's important to develop pass phrases or codes you can use with friends and family to verify each others' identities in case a scam like this ever comes up.    #3 Bank Impersonation Fraud  Jason was just finishing dinner when his phone rang with a number labeled “Bank Fraud Department.” The caller sounded professional, even reassuring, and said they'd detected suspicious activity on his checking account. “We need to verify your identity to cancel the card and secure your funds,” the voice said. Jason, alarmed but trusting, began answering questions—his full name, date of birth, and eventually his account number and online banking login. The caller promised a confirmation email would follow shortly. But when Jason checked his bank app minutes later, he was locked out. His account had been drained.   This scam relies on urgency and authority to trick victims into revealing sensitive information. Scammers often spoof legitimate phone numbers and use insider lingo to sound convincing. Jason's experience is a reminder of how sophisticated scammers can be. It's policy for most banks and financial institutions that they'll never ask for full login credentials or account numbers over the phone. When in doubt, hang up and call the bank directly using the number on the back of your card or found on their verified website.  Scams are increasing in sophistication these days, especially when tools like AI can convincingly replicate the voices of friends or loved ones. Please keep these scam tactics in mind and share with others in your life. Awareness is the first step in keeping our identities and finances safe in today's mobile and digital world.   If there are any other tips or topics you'd like us to cover, let us know at tcupodcast@trianglecu.org and don't forget to like and follow our new Making Money Personal FB page and look for Triangle on Instagram and LinkedIn to share your thoughts.  Thanks for listening to today's Money Tip Tuesday.

Scam call centres are paying up to €1,200 per person for the contact details of potential Irish victims.And once they have a name and number, it's game on, with highly-trained fraudsters working the phones to persuade victims to part with their money via bogus investment “opportunities”.Analysis by The Irish Times has identified 31 Irish victims who lost a combined total of nearly €300,000. This includes a 76-year-old man who lost €61,720, and a high-ranking diplomat who lost more than €31,000.Details of the transactions are contained in a vast data leak - including recordings of the phones calls - from a Georgian scam call centre which was provided to The Irish Times by the Organised Crime and Corruption Reporting Project (OOCRP), a non-government investigative journalism organisation.Irish Times crime and security correspondent Conor Gallagher is part of that project and he explains to In the News exactly how the scams work. And he talks to some of the Irish victims.But how do these scammers collect the phone numbers they call; how do they identify their victims and what sophisticated sales techniques do they use to persuade unsuspecting victims to “invest” in the bogus schemes?Presented by Bernice Harrison.

Scammers are flooding LinkedIn—and they're getting smarter. In this episode, Jim Stroud talks with Jay Jones (aka “The Profiler”), a copywriter-turned-scam hunter who has personally helped take down 31,000+ fake jobs and 7,000+ bogus profiles. Jay breaks down the most common grifts hitting job seekers and employers—from ATS “resume score” shakedowns to hijacked recruiter identities, one-way video “interviews” used to clone you, and brand-impostor company pages—then shares a clear playbook HR and TA leaders can use to protect their pipelines, reputations, and people. You'll learn: • The top red flags: Gmail “recruiters,” zero-activity profiles, low connection counts, camera-off interviews, missing requisitions, too-fast timelines. • How fake “ATS scores” and resume rewrites become gateways to identity theft. • Why hijacked profiles + brand impersonation are skyrocketing—and how to spot them fast. • Practical verification steps your recruiters should follow every time. • What companies can do beyond a website disclaimer to actively deter fraud.

THE SCAMS. They're getting wilder and wilder, and harder and harder to spot up front or even before you hand over the cash, if the scammer is faking a service you'd have to pay for. We're all getting these endlessly in non-writing life too, the ticket you didn't get, the recruiter who isn't one… I had a friend get a VERY real one that looked like it was from her town, about an existing work permit for work they were doing. The tell in that case was that it asked for a wire transfer, and in that town, you wander into town hall, hand them a check and also explain that you really paid that meter but you hit the wrong button for a car on ParkMobile.One important link we mention: https://wheregoes.com, where you can check any link you're given to see where it really goes—and you should.Here's Rachael's episode where she reads you her whole scammy letter, and talks about getting so jaded that she almost didn't open the email from her publicist telling her she'd hit the list: http://www.howdoyouwrite.net/episodes/i-hit-the-usa-today-bestseller-list-and-a-warningAnd to sign up for all Rachael's writerly things (which are EXCELLENT), go to https://rachaelherron.com/write.

What if life isn't a cosmic classroom full of tests, but a multidimensional game of vibration, resonance, and self-mastery? In this episode of Spiritual Shit we flip the old “Earth school” narrative on its head and explore a radical new paradigm: you're not here to pass exams or prove your worth — you're here to play with frequency. We'll break down how the universe mirrors your energetic broadcast, why recurring “life lessons” are really vibrational echoes, and how to stop living like you're being graded. If you've ever felt stuck in endless karmic cycles, wondering why the same struggles repeat, this conversation reframes the entire journey into one of conscious choice and freedom.Together we'll unpack the myth of worthiness tests, the Hermetic Principle of Vibration, and how to re-author your personal frequency so you can level up — or level out — by design. Expect practical tools like story audits, somatic release, boundary setting, and frequency casting to shift your reality without waiting for “graduation day.” We'll also explore relationships as resonance fields, energy dynamics that drain creatives and empaths, and how to step out of the old matrix rules to create a life driven by self-sovereignty. Perfect for seekers, spiritual entrepreneurs, and anyone ready to stop proving and start playing the game of life on their own terms.Work with me, your host,  here: Thelovelyalea.comOrder MEANINGFUL MANIFESTATION thelovelyalea.com/bookGet spiritual 1-on-1 Coaching thelovelyalea.com/servicesBecome a Love Society Member to get workshops every week , extra content, and community hellolovesociety.comFollow me on Instagram instagram.com/thelovelyalea ( Remember I will never DM you for readings - watch out for Scammers ! )
