With the rise of deep‑fakes, spoofing, and realistic AI‑generated content, businesses should adopt a more robust, yet time‑tested, approach to verifying identity before initiating major account changes, processing user‑requested actions, or vetting new hires.

This approach isn’t complicated, but it does require a modest investment of time and money. It’s simply “doing business in person.” Whether it means requiring a customer to visit a bank for large financial transactions, having an employee or vendor confirm details through a verified third party, or communicating via a pre‑approved channel, the need for genuine, face‑to‑face interaction should become a core element of business policy and personal financial procedures to curb online fraud.

Have You Seen – Summer Scam Jam – Spot and Stop Scams in North Carolina

AARP North Carolina has teamed up with the North Carolina Attorney General and Secretary of State to release an on-demand video program—the Summer Scam Jam—designed to help North Carolinians of all ages recognize, report, and prevent common summer scams  .

What’s Inside the Summer Scam Jam Video?

Covers frequent summer-themed scams, from fake toll-road and travel giveaways to concert ticket cons and seasonal employment frauds  . Features AARP Fraud Watch volunteers, along with commentary from Attorney General Jeff Jackson and Secretary of State Elaine Marshall, among other fraud prevention leaders  .

Why This Matters

In 2024, Americans reported $12.5 billion in fraud losses. However, many incidents go unreported—estimated at as many as 44 unreported cases for each documented senior scam  . Highlighted: bitcoin or cryptocurrency demands, warning signs of impostor scams, and red flags like urgent pressure to pay or share personal data  .

Trusted Sources & How to Report

Secretary Marshall recommends verifying charity or business credentials via the official Secretary of State website before donating or engaging  . Attorney General Jackson encourages reporting scams to ncdoj.gov, via the NC DOJ hotline (877‑5‑NO‑SCAM), or calling NC 2‑1‑1, which links callers to the proper resources  .

Take Action: Protect Yourself and Your Community

The video is available for senior centers and community service providers through the North Carolina Association on Aging  . AARP offers free Fraud Watchdog email alerts, access to trained volunteers, and the option to request in-person or virtual fraud prevention workshops

Scam motives are something all international students should know! I remember being scammed in the streets by people asking for money and receiving random calls from scammers pretending to be an authorised organisation. Lately, the number of victims has arisen in Australia, and scams should stop. #scam #stopscams #internationalstudent #studyabroad
