Max travels from the Philippines to Thailand to take a high-paying job at a casino. But when he arrives, he's instead taken to a camp in the jungles of Myanmar and put to work in a call center running phone scams across the globe. His sister Charlie learns the only way to get him home is also to work for the syndicate.  In order to meet Max's quota, his brother joins the labor camp while Charlie tricks new recruits into the scam factory. With the hope of rescue slim, they're left with few options to win Max's freedom - either negotiate an impossible financial settlement or flee from armed guards into the wilderness. The Wondery podcast “Scam Factory” takes us inside the most dangerous call center in the world. Host Denise Chan tells Charlie's story of high-stakes fraud and moral dilemmas. It also features interviews with her victims conned into forced labor.

Text a Message to the ShowToday we're talking to Jake, the International Security Specialist Guy… which may or may not be his real name.  Jake has 25 years experience in law enforcement as an American cop; now he lives in Thailand and trains people who are traveling internationally into high threat environments.  Jake trains them and helps to manage crises while they're in-country, assisting them with any kind of emergency that would cause them to be ejected from that nation, from war to crime to earthquakes and other natural disasters.Traveling internationally might be the only time that many American police officers are unarmed.  They carry a gun and knife on duty and off duty but not while traveling to foreign countries, which can leave you feeling pretty exposed.  Jake is going to talk to us about how not to get kidnapped while traveling in a foreign country.  He's going to cover all kinds of scenarios including carjacking, pickpockets, and dealing with scams while traveling.Resources:The UK travel advise site: https://www.gov.uk/foreign-travel-adviceThe US travel advise site: travel.state.govMusic is by National Sweetheart and by Chris HaugenHey Chaplain Podcast Episode 117Tags:Police, Assault, Bags, Budget, Carjacking, Guns, Kidnapping, Motorcycles, Pickpocketing, Robbery, Safety, Scams, Taxis, Trains, Transportation, Travel, Bangladesh, Djibouti, Ethiopia, France, Haiti, India, Kenya, Lebanon, Mexico, Nigeria, Philippines, Poland, Romania, St Maarten, Syria, Thailand, Uganda, Ukraine, YemenSupport the showThanks for Listening!

EP. 220: Most “clean” mineral sunscreens aren't doing what you think they are. In this episode, I break down the truth about zinc oxide percentages, titanium dioxide, and the sneaky UV booster chemicals hiding in the inactive ingredient list — chemicals that act like sunscreen, boost SPF ratings, and still get labeled “mineral” and “clean”, but are closer to chemical sunscreens than you'd think. Total scam IMO. To top it off, if your bottle says “broad spectrum” but has less than a certain percentage of zinc, you're probably not protected from the rays that lead to aging and deeper skin damage. There's a lot to unpack here, and on this episode I'm calling out the marketing deception, naming names, and giving you the tools to read the damn label. If you care about your skin, your health, and not being lied to — this episode is a must. Topics Discussed: → What “broad spectrum” actually means (and why it's misleading) → The minimum zinc oxide % your mineral sunscreen needs to work → The dirty secret of UV booster chemicals hiding in “clean” formulas → Why most mineral sunscreens don't protect against UVA1 (and what that means for aging + skin cancer risk) → How titanium dioxide falls short — and why zinc is queen → The sunscreen labeling loopholes that are scamming all of us → My favorite sunscreens that actually pass the test Sponsored By: → Qualia | Go to ⁠qualialife.com/DRTYNA⁠ for up to 50% off your purchase and use code DRTYNA for an additional 15% → LMNT | Get your free Sample Pack with any LMNT purchase at ⁠drinkLMNT.com/drtyna⁠ → Maui Nui Venison | Head to ⁠mauinuivenison.com/DRTYNA⁠ to secure your access now.  → Sundays | As a Listener of The Dr Tyna Show, you can Get 40% off your first order of Sundays.

Weird Al Yankovic joins Samantha Bee to discuss their unique meet-cute, and how their interview came to be due to a scam gone right. Al tells Sam about how he’s actually happy with all the choices he’s made in life except (other than wishing he had bought Apple stock) and yet he agonizes over little decisions—especially when editing music videos. He reveals that the ultimate dig at him is when people say he’s talented enough to do “real music”, why record companies beg for Christmas albums, and turning down an opportunity to open for Duran Duran at Madison Square Garden.

In this fast-moving, fraud-fighting episode of Talking Real Money, Tom Cock is joined by longtime consumer advocate Herb Weisbaum (aka The ConsumerMan) to expose two of the fastest-growing scams in the U.S.: predatory solar sales and the “pig butchering” crypto scam. Herb details the dangerous combination of shady sales reps and shadowy financing pushing overpriced, underperforming solar systems door-to-door. Then, the duo dives into long-con crypto scams, deepfake romance cons, and the weaponization of AI for fraud. Herb doesn't hold back—calling crypto “sheer stupidity” and buy-now-pay-later schemes a gateway to regret.

This week, our hosts⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠Dave Bittner⁠⁠, ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Joe Carrigan⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, and ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Maria Varmazis⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ (also host of the ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠T-Minus⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Space Daily show) are back sharing the latest in social engineering scams, phishing schemes, and criminal exploits that are making headlines. We start with some follow up, as Joe shares with us a complaint he has with Vanguard. Maria's story is on McAfee's latest research revealing that one in five Americans has fallen for a travel scam—often losing hundreds of dollars—despite many trying to stay vigilant, as scammers use fake websites, AI-altered photos, and phishing links to exploit deal-seeking travelers. Joe's got two stories this week: the first one is from Rachel Tobac on LinkedIn, breaking down how attackers like Scattered Spider are using phone-based impersonation, fake domains, and social engineering to breach insurance companies, and the second is on Aflac confirming it was hit in a cyberattack believed to be part of a broader campaign targeting the insurance sector, likely tied to the same threat group. Dave's story is on brushing scams, a scheme the United States Postal Service is warning about, where scammers send unordered packages—often low-cost items—to people's addresses so they can fraudulently post fake “verified” reviews online using the recipient's name and address to boost product rankings. Our catch of the day is from the scams sub-Reddit, where someone shared text messages from a scammer asking for only a small favor. Complete our annual audience survey before August 31.

President Trump is raging at GOP Senator Thom Tillis for telling the truth about the Senate version of his budget bill, which could knock 10 million people off Medicaid. Trump threatened him with a primary—whereupon he announced his retirement. Tillis has since been sharply criticizing the bill, noting it will bump 600,000 people from Medicaid in North Carolina. This reveals that when Trump vowed not to cut Medicaid, he was lying. But it also shows his much-advertised vow to remake the GOP as working class has proven a sham. By threatening Tillis, Trump has only drawn more attention to Tillis' truth-telling about his swindle of MAGA voters. And as Trump's own media allies are warning, this could put the Senate in play for Democrats. We talked to New Republic staff writer Timothy Noah, author of a new piece on GOP lying about the bill. He explains why Trump's Medicaid cuts are so indefensible, how they expose the core of Trump's “working class GOP” scam, and what it all means for Democratic hopes of regaining power.

This week on All the Feelings, Pete and Tommy explore the emotional aftershocks of being needed… and then suddenly not. Pete reflects on launching two adult kids into the world and discovering that successful parenting feels a bit like getting laid off from a beloved job—complete with pride, grief, and way too much free time. One minute you're managing snacks and carpool, the next you're wondering if your adult child has remembered to eat or just sent you a meme so you'll stop asking.Meanwhile, Tommy confronts his own dependence issues—namely, a rescue dog named Foster who once had its way on a stranger's sandals at the beach. It's an emotional support animal that mostly needs support for being an emotional menace. And it raises the question: how much of our identity is tied to how our dependents behave in public?Also: a theft that leads to a 911 call, a rogue Capri Sun on a soccer field, and the quiet horror of realizing your purpose has been reassigned. If you've ever cared too much, let go too slowly, or blamed yourself for your dog's personality, this one's for you.Become a Feeling Friend!Help us keep the precinct weird: allthefeelings.funGet early access, bonus content, stickers, and the satisfaction of supporting emotional democracy for only $35 a year.

This week, we saddle up for another bumpy ride through the dystopian tech clown show. We kick off with the surveillance state's greatest hits: ICE raids sweeping L.A., a website literally called FuckLAPD.com that lets you ID cops by their mug shots, and a Norwegian tourist who learned the hard way that having a JD Vance chipmunk meme on your phone is now grounds for deportation. Pro tip: if you're traveling to the U.S., you might want to wrap your phone in lead and bury it in a cornfield.In the news, Big Balls has apparently rolled his way from Elon's Department of Government Efficiency to the Social Security Administration—because nothing says “government modernization” like a 19-year-old tech bro with a meme nickname. Meanwhile, Tesla robotaxis are hitting the roads (and maybe a few pedestrians) with human babysitters in tow, Waymo and Uber are turning Atlanta into Blade Runner Lite, and Texas wants a permit for your self-driving car. Over in AI hell, judges can't agree if training your chatbot on stolen books is fair use or just digital asbestos. YouTube, never one to miss a race to the bottom, is rolling out an AI Slop button so you can crank up the crap to 11.In Media Candy, Russell Crowe is beefing up his IMDb with Highlander, Henry Cavill is along for the ride, and Anthony Bourdain Day is apparently a thing (even though he'd have rolled his eyes at it). We also dig into everything from Minecraft movies to the sad demise of Blue Microphones at the hands of Logitech. Plus, Dave Bittner drops by to commiserate about malware, retro gaming handhelds, and why some Star Wars maps are basically porn for nerds. And yes—Windows is finally killing the Blue Screen of Death, proving even Microsoft can eventually learn to read the room.DeleteMe - Head over to JoinDeleteMe.com/GOG and use the code "GOG" for 20% off.Private Internet Access - Go to GOG.Show/vpn and sign up today.
