Summary

Art and Ashton from Trilogy Media join me to break down how modern scams actually work. From romance scams, fake customer service calls to AI voice scams, crypto fraud, and the psychology behind why people fall for them. What shocked me most is how sophisticated and emotional these scams have become, especially for older people and anyone going through a vulnerable time in life. We also talk about how Trilogy Media went from making viral scam-bait videos to working with the FBI, Homeland Security, and law enforcement to expose international fraud rings and help stop scammers in real time. Some of these stories are unbelievable.
