New Year, New Scam? 'New research from NatWest found that a whopping 42 per cent of British adults were targeted by fraudsters from November 2023-2024, while 86 per cent believe that more should be done to stop scams at their source.' Did you fall victim to any scams last year? Scammers posing as friends and family requesting money, often through email or social media, became one of the fastest growing schemes - along with event ticket scams, fake grants to help with the costing-of-living crisis, and social media marketplace adverts for products that didn't exist. Now with advancements in technology, and especially AI, scams are becoming even more sophisticated. It's so important to stay up-to-date with the latest scams! Always take the time to double-check the authenticity, and if something seems to good to be true - it probably is! #ai #scam #cyberattack #cybersecurity #dataprotection
