In 2014, the unknown Dr Ruja Ignatova came out of nowhere with promises that everyone could make millions with a fabulous new invention of her very own creation. Dr Ruja may not be a household name, but she subsequently reached a level of fame and fortune that most of us can only dream of. That is, until, on October 7th, 2017, something happened that nobody could explain. Dr Ruja disappeared without a trace. But what happened? Where did she go? And why did all this land her on the FBI's most wanted list? This is a story of glamour, greed, and a global scam worth $15 billion. So, grab your detective hats as we follow the trail to investigate the world's most wanted scammer that nobody can find.Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

The documents suggest that while Meta has taken steps to reduce fraudulent ads, it has also focused on managing how those scams are seen by regulators — including making certain scam ads harder to find when authorities search Meta’s public Ad Library.

Your car doesn't just drive anymore.It stores data, connects to your phone, tracks locations, and communicates with the cloud. And according to cybersecurity expert Robert Siciliano, that makes modern vehicles—and the dealerships that sell and service them—prime targets for criminals. In this episode, we sit down with one of the most trusted voices in personal and digital security to unpack a reality most drivers aren't prepared for: cars are now computers on wheels.Robert has spent over 30 years investigating crime, identity theft, and cyber threats. He's appeared on CNN, CNBC, ABC, NBC, Fox News, and more—but today, the focus is on what every car owner, buyer, and dealer needs to understand right now. In this conversation, we break down:What data modern vehicles collectHow hackers exploit connected car systemsWhy dealerships are attractive cyber targetsThe hidden risks tied to apps, EVs, and remote accessSimple steps drivers can take to protect themselvesIf you own a car, plan to buy one, or work in the auto industry, this conversation isn't optional—it's essential.

2025 wasn't a punishment year — it was a preparation year.In this episode of Spiritual Shit, I break down why so many people felt cracked open, exhausted, and stripped of old identities in 2025 — and why that breakdown was necessary for what comes next.This year forced a shedding: people-pleasing, fear of being judged, silencing yourself to belong, and waiting for permission to speak. Not because you were doing it wrong — but because the version of you that hides can't carry the light you're meant to bring forward.We talk about:Why fear of being seen is the biggest block to intuitionHow your external voice and inner voice are directly connectedWhy intuition doesn't get louder when you think more — but when you express moreHow losing approval rewires self-trustWhy the people who struggled most in 2025 are often the ones meant to lead, create, speak, and illuminate nextThis episode is for anyone who feels like they've stopped caring what others think — not because they're numb, but because something truer is finally emerging.Work with me, your host, here: Thelovelyalea.comOrder MEANINGFUL MANIFESTATION thelovelyalea.com/bookGet spiritual 1-on-1 Coaching thelovelyalea.com/servicesFollow me on Instagram instagram.com/thelovelyalea ( Remember I will never DM you for readings - watch out for Scammers ! )

The same tactics that con artists use to manipulate you can be used to build trust. Dr. Abbie Maroño explains the psychology of ethical social engineering. Full show notes and resources can be found here: jordanharbinger.com/1255What We Discuss with Dr. Abbie Maroño:Manipulation vs. Influence: It's all about intention. The same psychological tactics can be used for good or evil. The difference? Manipulation disregards harm to others and exploits fear, while influence builds mutual benefit and makes people want to collaborate with you. Con artists use manipulation because it's faster — but ethical influence wins every time over the long term.Scammers weaponize your emotions to bypass critical thinking. When emotions are activated, your prefrontal cortex — the brain's logic center — gets overridden. That's why con artists use artificial urgency ("only 24 hours left!") and exclusivity ("just for you"). They only need to appear trustworthy, not actually be it, because you'll act before you can verify.Shame is the silent weapon that keeps victims quiet. The reason so many scam victims never report what happened isn't denial, it's embarrassment. Shame becomes its own prison, preventing people from seeking help or warning others. This silence protects predators and perpetuates cycles of exploitation.Short-term thinking is the con artist's best friend. Manipulators prey on our psychological bias toward immediate rewards. Getting $100 now feels more valuable than $150 later — even when it isn't. This "survival mode" mentality keeps people chasing quick wins rather than building something sustainable.To protect yourself, remember that other people's emotions usually have nothing to do with you. When someone pushes your buttons or creates pressure, pause and recognize it for what it is: a tactic, not a personal attack. Shelving your emotional reaction keeps your critical thinking intact — and that's your best defense against manipulation and your greatest asset in any negotiation.And much more...And if you're still game to support us, please leave a review here — even one sentence helps!
