Protect Yourself from Getting Scammed!

  • Summary

  • The little old lady loses her life savings to someone she THOUGHT was her grandson. The retiree transfers hundreds of thousands of dollars to who he THOUGHT was his long-distance girlfriend. The teenager's being extorted over nude photos they sent to who they THOUGHT was another teen. We see these heart-breaking stories every day, and wonder "How could they not have seen the red flags?" The fact is, smart people fall victim to scammers every single day.

    3:50 | Consumer protection advocate Julie Matthews shines a light on new scams involving AI voice and video generation, Telus customer rewards, air duct cleaning, software security, and more.
