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

So when Vicki receives a call claiming to be from one of the biggest companies in the world, of course she hands over control of her phone. 

This ‘help’, however, turns out to be a hijacking.

But it doesn't have to play out like this. There are ways to flip the script - to scam the scammers - and even to entertain millions while you do it….

  • Vicki Smith

  • James Roberts - General Manager of Group Fraud Management Services at CommBank

  • Assistant Commissioner Chris Goldsmid - AFP Cyber Operations Commander
