Listen to a podcast, please open Podcast Republic app. Available on Google Play Store and Apple App Store.
A true crime podcast about Scams, Hacking and Fraud. Real stories of Con Artists, Romance Scams and Identity theft, and the red flags that keep your family safe.
By listening to our stories and sharing them with your friends and family, you can be better protected against Scammers, Fraudsters and Hackers.
Each week, you and your loved ones can learn the red flags of a scam or fraud attempt by listening to a true-crime story in the time it takes to drink a cup of coffee, helping keep you and your loved ones safe from an Internet Scam or Con artist.
In a world full of misinformation and AI-generated stories, it's hard to know what is true. You'll find all of our episodes, transcripts, and Further reading on our website at www.scamshacksandfrauds.com so you don't just have to take our word for it. We don't use AI to generate our stories, and every word Cee says was spoken by Cee.
We share new stories every other Monday.
Have you fallen for an Internet Scam, Fraud or been Phished? Please share your stories with us. Email Cee@scamshacksandfrauds.com with your story.
We accept emails from potential guests who work in areas such as fraud prevention or data security (as well as agents who market such people), but we do not accept pitches for tools to market the podcast, and we already use a number of tools that can make short clips for us and have chosen not to make short clips at this time.
