This post might be a scam. (It’s not. We checked.) From social scams to real-time payments, modern fraud is fast, bold, and hard to trace. Luckily, tech and regulation are stepping up. See what’s working.

"Let’s do it.” Those three words sealed the fate of a retired lawyer who lost $740,000 – not to hackers, but to a fake federal task force. They convinced him he was helping bring down criminals. Instead, he helped them steal his life savings. In 2023 alone, Americans over 60 lost more than $3.4 billion to cyber-enabled elder fraud. At The Assembly Las Vegas this September, we’ll go beyond the headlines to unpack what financial institutions, platforms, and frontline professionals can do differently to detect and disrupt these scams before they succeed. We’ll examine: ▪️ Why frontline fraud professionals often don’t have the full picture ▪️ How improved collaboration could change the game and identify disconnects in the system ▪️ How frameworks like those described under section 314(b) can be better used to connect the dots This isn’t just about one victim. It’s about how to close systemic gaps that endanger millions of people. Join us in Vegas to explore how you can shift outcomes. #ACAMSAssembly
