After years of studying scams and engaging with scammers, I’ve found that pretending to be a victim is a powerful way to help others identify these deceptive tactics. It’s disheartening how prevalent scam calls are, particularly for those in the 55+ age group, and the rise of Medicare scams after 65 is deeply concerning. I’m particularly driven to challenge Jamaican Lottery Scammers because their exploitation of victims as money mules is a serious issue. When a scammer inadvertently reveals another victim’s information, I make it my mission to reach out and provide a warning. This vital work is supported by dedicated and compassionate victim advocates.
