In our fight against scams, we started to heed the warnings and spot the signs – the message was sinking in.
But then we woke up one day in the AI era and the traditional signs of a scam are more scam-ouflaged than ever before. It's hard to spot the signs if you can't trust that what you're seeing is real.
In this new season of Anatomy of a Scam, hosts Deb Knight and Trevor Long examine how crooks have taken the traditional scam playbook and turbocharged it with AI, the powerful new technology redefining our digital lives.

Anatomy of a Scam returns on Tuesday, November 28th.

We’ve all had a problem solved on the end of a tech support line.
