Smashing Security

The Godfather club, and AirTags to the rescue


Listen Later

There's a whole new dating scam that could mean you end up out of pocket (or beaten up) after a first date with a glamorous admirer, and a woman in Los Alamos uses an Air Tag to entrap a thief.

Plus - don't miss our featured interview with Maya Levine of Sysdig.

All this, and a very bad Cockney accent, in the latest edition of the "Smashing Security" podcast by industry veterans Graham Cluley and Carole Theriault.
