Have you noticed how prevalent scams and fraud are but not sure what to do? Scams, Fraud, and Protecting Your Money was written for anyone who wants to be better prepared to avoid being hacked, scammed, or taken in by a fraudster. By being aware of what you may encounter and setting up basic protocols in managing personally identifiable information, passwords, multi-factor authentication, account transaction alerts, and credit score monitoring you reduce your likelihood of becoming a target. Every time you open your computer or cell phone, you face a scammer. AI has many positives, but scamming is now much easier to perpetrate and much more difficult to detect and punish. AI-generated audio and video deepfakes allow scammers to convincingly impersonate CEOs, relatives, or celebrities. In 2023, a company lost $25 million after employees believed an AI-generated video call mimicking their CFO. According to the Federal Trade Commission, nationwide fraud losses were $10 Billion in 2023.
