Listen "Scam cases surge with increasingly clever tactics"
Episode Synopsis
It’s been revealed that Kiwis lost a record $3 billion to scams this year. That’s a 30% increase from $2.3 billion last year. Netsafe and the Global Anti-Scam Alliance ‘State of Scams in New Zealand’ report shows that scammers are getting more sophisticated – and victims are facing persistent barriers to reporting and recovering their losses. So, how should we protect ourselves and who should be held accountable? Today on The Front Page, Netsafe’s Sean Lyons is with us to break down the latest figures, and discuss how New Zealand can better prepare itself for the evolving world of scams.
