Ever wonder how someone could lose their life savings to a scam? In Episode 50 of A Bite From The Money Sandwich, Marc Bineham is joined by Tracy Hall, author, keynote speaker and senior marketing executive who has most recently become known as the famous last victim of Hamish McLaren - arguably Australia's most prolific con-man. Tracy lost $317,000 and, for a time, her ability to trust. Now, she shares her story of resilience and recovery. Tracy discusses not only her personal experience but also the larger issues of global scams, victim-blaming, and the emotional toll fraud can take. From spotting red flags to rebuilding trust, Tracy’s insights provide invaluable lessons on safeguarding yourself and your finances. With her new memoir, The Last Victim, Tracy aims to educate and raise awareness about scams, while offering hope to others who may have been deceived.
