    Agentic AI: Redefining Fraud Defence

    The main thing that agentic AI is going to be good at is pulling together data from multiple sources… metadata, images, device intelligence, and reconciling it to spot subtle fraud signs humans might miss.” As fraud grows more sophisticated, financial institutions are turning to agentic AI: systems that don’t just analyse data, but act on it to detect and prevent fraudulent activity at scale. In this episode, we explore how these AI agents are reshaping compliance and fraud prevention, and what that means for human oversight and operational efficiency. Our special guest this week is Will Lawrence, CEO and co-founder of Greenlite AI. He shares insights on how his company’s AI agents tackle high-volume fraud, reconcile unstructured and structured data, and free investigators to focus on high-risk, complex cases. From false positives and synthetic identities to regulatory compliance and emerging fraud vectors, this conversation highlights how businesses can adopt AI responsibly while maintaining trust and accountability in their operations.

    Fraud, Digital Identity, Trust. Where do we go from here?

    “Trust may sound soft, but in practice it’s the hardest currency there is… and in a world of AI, bots, and fraud, trust can make or break a platform.” As AI grows more complex and cybercriminals more sophisticated, the need to earn and protect trust has never been greater. In this episode, we dive into why trust is at the centre of digital identity, how businesses can build it, and what happens when it breaks. Our special guests this week are Eddie Moxon-Garcia, Product Marketing Lead at Sumsub, and Nikolai Suhharnikov, Head of Technical Presales at Sumsub. Together they share insights from working with some of the world’s largest companies on fraud protection, verification, and identity. From synthetic IDs and deepfakes to regulation, transparency, and reusable digital identity, this conversation explores how businesses, regulators, and users can meet in the middle to create trust online.

    Pig Butchering: Inside the Billion-Dollar Scam Factories

    “Imagine a campus with 35 buildings, but they are all for the purpose of scamming. It was a walled in, locked down facility where hundreds, thousands of people were in the business of scamming people all over the world.” Pig Butchering scams have become some of the most lucrative online frauds around. These are highly organized, emotionally manipulative schemes where victims are tricked into handing over life savings, often after forming fake romantic relationships with their scammers. Since 2020, more than 75 billion dollars could have been stolen from victims worldwide. On this week’s episode we hear from someone on the frontline investigating and shutting down these pig butchering scams. She’s seen the inside of scam factories to show us exactly how they carry out their lucrative crimes.  Our guest, Erin West spent 26 years as a Deputy District Attorney and carried investigations into cryptocurrency-enabled crimes, SIM-swapping, and digital financial fraud.  Now, as the President of the anti-fraud initiative Operation Shamrock, Erin is on a mission to unite the global community—law enforcement, crypto platforms, NGOs—to expose, disrupt, and shut down these fraud networks for good.   Sumsub's website: sumsub.com   Sumsub’s What The Fraud Summit: https://sumsub.com/wtf-summit/ Sumsub's LinkedIn: linkedin.com/sumsub  Sumsub's Facebook: facebook.com/sumsub  Sumsub's Instagram: facebook.com/sumsubcom  Sumsub's YouTube Channel: youtube.com/@sumsubcom   Thomas Taraniuk on LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/tomtaraniuk   Erin West on Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/erinnordbywest Hosted on Acast.
