The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) recently released their scam report data from 2023, and the numbers tell a concerning story. They project that victims lost $10 billion to scams in 2023, and that number only includes those who reported their losses. In addition, one in four people reported losing money to scammers with a median loss of about $500 per person. The most common source of scams was email. Protecting your usernames and passwords and deleting unexpected email and text messages are easy ways to prevent fraud.

While studies might not yet have commenced, some university students are already being tested. Students are currently being targeted as money mules; being asked to move money through their bank account in exchange for payment. Money muling is money laundering and is a serious crime. If convicted, you can face from 12 months to life in prison. A criminal conviction may also impact your current student visa and future student visa eligibility. Student visa holders may also face visa cancellation. Cancellation of your student visa may prevent you from making further visa application to stay and continue your study in Australia. Keep an eye out for people contacting you through social media, fake job offers, or even messages from unknown numbers, offering you a job as a money transfer agent. If someone contacts you to be a money mule you should: • Stop all communication with the person • Do not carry out any further transactions • Immediately contact your bank so they can stop any transactions • Report to police using the ‘Report’ button at www.cyber.gov.au
Got an offer to get rich quick? If it sounds too good to be true – it probably is! If someone asks you to move money through your bank account in exchange for payment, then they are asking you to be a money mule. This is illegal and they are asking you to commit a crime. Money mules are recruited by money laundering syndicates and used to transfer stolen money to make the funds appear legitimate. If you have been contacted, stop all communications. If you have made transfers do not make any more, call your bank and report it to police at www.cyber.gov.au/report.

This week's #FraudFriday news happened in my neck of the woods in Tampa, FL. 31-year-old Coretta Bates was arrested on April 3rd after being on the run for months. She was charged with two felony counts of #bank #fraud and two felony counts of aggravated #identitytheft, after placing her own photo on fake North Carolina drivers' licenses that used information stolen from victims of identity theft to open accounts, apply for lines of credit and then take cash advances against those lines of credit with no intention to repay. Total losses were $165,000. With technology and the use of #AI making fake IDs and bad actors harder to catch, what can financial institutions do? At Nymbus, we recognize that the ability to detect and prevent fraud loss requires a combination of smart humans and adaptive technology. It's why we've partnered with organizations like Socure, that continue to launch new capabilities such as deepfake selfie detectors and ID barcode reconstruction to flag items indistinguishable to the human eye and with partners like DataVisor who we're actively working with to bring real-time fraud interdiction to provide support to our #bank and #creditunion clients. #fraudprevention #frauddetection #fintech #financialinstitutions Thanks to Tim Charboneau, CAMS, CFE for sharing this link out yesterday to allow me to borrow some inspiration! https://lnkd.in/e6Ysi4GR
