Is Your Financial Data Safe? Exploring System Vulnerabilities with Austin Harris

Fraudology is presented by Sardine.

In this episode of Fraudology, host Karisse Hendrick talks with Austin Harris, senior fraud analyst at Cross River Bank and host of the renamed podcast "Fraud Cases Unleashed." They delve into the differences between intricate frauds of the past and the simpler, quantity-over-quality frauds of today, largely driven by system vulnerabilities and trends spread via social media. Harris shares a basic yet illustrative case of credit card fraud and discusses the generational perspectives on fraud, stressing the importance of work-life balance, especially in a high-stress industry prone to burnout. The conversation also addresses the "fraud triangle" theory, shedding light on the motivations and opportunities that lead individuals, particularly from Gen Z, to commit fraud.

Tune in for an insightful discussion on how the landscape of fraud has evolved, the impact of social media on scam trends, and the significance of maintaining a purpose-driven approach to work in fraud prevention.

Fraudology is hosted by Karisse Hendrick, a fraud fighter with decades of experience advising hundreds of the biggest ecommerce companies in the world on fraud, chargebacks, and other forms of abuse impacting a company's bottom line.
