    Scam Factories and Modern Slavery

    When we hear the word 'slavery' it conjures images of slave ships in the 18th century, crossing the Atlantic packed with human cargo bound for the Americas. But in reality, there is more human trafficking and slavery now than there ever was in history. With an estimated 50 million people living in modern slavery today, the practice generates nearly $250 billion in profit every year. And it’s happening in plain sight - in the very streets where we live. But all too often the victims are hidden, faceless or hard to perceive which is why why CEO Andrew Wallis (OBE) called his charitable organisation Unseen when he first set out to tackle the problem in the UK nearly 20 years ago. He'll help us unpack what forms modern slavery takes, who the people most vulnerable to being exploited in this way are and who's doing the exploiting. In addition we take a look at another financial crime with very human victims - some of them not immediately obvious. One area which creates a huge amount of human collateral is the world of scams. Perhaps you’ve fallen victim to one or you’ve simply stopped answering unknown callers because of how prevalent they are, but did you know that the person making those calls might also be a victim themselves? Paul O’Donoghue, Senior Correspondent with AML Intelligence, takes us through the growing problem of scam factories.
