Description

In episode 9 of Scam Rangers, our guest Ian Mitchell, a 25-year fraud fighter, shares his journey in the fight against human crime, including scams, child exploitation, and elder abuse. He explains how Knoble and MissionOmega are working towards their mission of preventing fraud and empowering people. We also discuss how scams often intersect with other forms of criminal activity, such as sex and drug trafficking, and what fraud fighters can do to fight back. Finally,  we highlight how fraud prevention can benefit banks by improving customer retention and ROI and emphasize the importance of preventing customers from becoming mules.If you're interested in supporting Ian and his team in their mission to revolutionize the fight against fraud, we invite you to join them: https://www.theknoble.com/. This podcast is hosted by Ayelet Biger-Levin  who spent the last 15 years building technology to help financial institutions authenticate their customers and identify fraud. She believes that when it comes to scams, the story starts well before the transaction. She has created this podcast to talk about the human side of scams, and to learn from people who have decided to dedicate their lives to speaking up on behalf of scam victims and who take action to solve this problem.
