    This week, our hosts ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Dave Bittner⁠ , ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Joe Carrigan⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, and ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Maria Varmazis⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ (also host of the ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠T-Minus⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Space Daily show) are sharing the latest in social engineering scams, phishing schemes, and criminal exploits that are making headlines. We start off with a celebration of Cybersecurity Awareness Month. Joe's story is on how the North Wales Police are warning cryptocurrency holders after a victim lost £2.1 million in Bitcoin to a highly targeted scam, where criminals posing as police used a fake security breach story to trick them into entering their password on a fraudulent site. Dave has two stories this week, the first one from a Reddit user being targeted by the classic "White Van Scam," where scammers tried to sell cheap projectors as high-end equipment using a fake story and forged receipt. In his second story, the FBI is warning that cybercriminals are spoofing its official IC3 website to steal personal information and scam victims, urging users to type the URL directly and avoid suspicious links or fake social media pages. Maria has the story on two U.S. senators pressing Tinder parent company Match Group to step up efforts against romance scams, demanding details on how it detects fraud and protects users from criminals exploiting trust on its platforms. Our catch of the day comes from Reddit where a user was targeted by a scammer, but cleverly was able to get them to retreat.

    Sep 25 2025
    This week, while⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Dave Bittner is out, ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Joe Carrigan⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, and ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Maria Varmazis⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ (also host of the ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠T-Minus⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Space Daily show) are sharing the latest in social engineering scams, phishing schemes, and criminal exploits that are making headlines. Listener Daniel shares a follow-up where scammers exploited details from a Texas car accident to pose as claim assistants, highlighting the importance of working only with your insurance or official state agencies. Joe follows the story of Iowa authorities uncovering a nationwide texting scam run from inside a Georgia prison, and a Cincinnati man pleading guilty to stealing over $2 million through dating app fraud. Maria covers two stories this week, one on how human trafficking victims are being forced to run online scams across Southeast Asia’s billion-dollar fraud industry, and another on cybercriminals using “SMS blasters” to push mass scam texts directly to nearby phones by impersonating cell towers. Our catch of the day comes from Reddit where a user received a deceiving letter by mail.
