Scam Survivor

How One Victim Fought Back

Beschreibung

Fraud is the fastest growing crime in the world. This is the story of one man's experience of a serious smishing scam, lasting just a few minutes, combining a text message, supposedly from his bank, a phone conversation, leading to an unauthorized transfer, which netted the scammers a tidy five-figure sum.
