Scammers don’t just lurk online—they may be coming straight to your front door.
For centuries, con artists have refined their craft, using deception and misdirection to separate victims from their money.
But today’s fraudsters have more sophisticated tools than ever before.
The worst part? You won’t even realize you’ve been conned until it’s too late.
In this episode, I break down the playbook of modern swindlers with Jim Grinstead, veteran newspaperman and host of the Scams and Cons podcast.
Grinstead studies the psychology of deception—and what he’s uncovered should concern us all.
