May 23rd Scam Advice Webinar: How scammers collect money &
an increase of scammers appearing in person
The scam world has recently seen a dramatic change. Scammers are now appearing in person at people’s homes to pick up money they defraud from victims. This seems to be happening across the board, with notable upticks in grandparent scams, tech support, and other frauds. This means that there is an increasing role for local law enforcement, which has increasingly been arresting the scammers when they appear.
In addition, scammers have long taken advantage of other nontraditional methods of collecting money, such as FedEx and the US mail. But increasingly they have been using Uber drivers to collect the money.
Join Steve Baker and Debbie Deem and other forum participants in an exploration of this new crime trend.
