This Hacking Humans episode, featuring Dave Bittner, Joe Carrigan, and Maria Varmazis, reviews a range of social engineering and online fraud trends, including fake E‑ZPass toll alerts, investment/romance/online shopping scams, AI‑amplified get‑rich‑quick schemes on social platforms, and a California man sentenced for a gold bar scam. The hosts also highlight FTC figures reporting a surge to $12.5B in losses across 2.6M fraud reports in 2024, with younger adults more frequently victimized, and close with a “catch of the day” involving a fake message from Melania Trump.
