Ep. 3 — The Shame Nobody Talks About: Life After a Scam


Listen Later

If you have ever been scammed, or someone you love has, the money was not the worst part. The shame was. And that is exactly what nobody is talking about. Until now.

In this episode of The Mind & The Machine, we go into the psychology of fraud, the mental health aftermath that victims carry alone, and why your silence is being used as a weapon, not just against you, but against everyone who comes after you.

We cover why smart, careful, educated people get scammed and it has nothing to do with intelligence, the 3 psychological weapons scammers use to bypass your rational brain, the real mental health consequences research shows, why only 5 to 20 percent of fraud is ever reported, and 4 concrete steps to take right now if this has happened to you or someone you love.

You were not naive. You were hunted.
