Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Leveraging AI for Fraud Investigations: Why Investigators Are the Next Builders
Q: What should fraud leaders be doing today to develop their investigators into the people who will help design, supervise, and improve tomorrow's fraud systems?
He recommends working with investigators to map current systems, break down the work, and redesign processes for AI rather than bolting AI onto existing workflows.
Leveraging AI for Fraud Investigations: Why Investigators Are the Next Builders
Q: What do you think are we misunderstanding about how modern fraud operations actually work?
Kipnis says many fraud and scam operations are organized like companies, with leaders, recruiting, infrastructure, and specialized work. Taking down individual accounts or devices often does little to disrupt operations at scale.
The PSECU Fraud Files: Turning Member Stories Into Fraud Prevention
Q: What would you want every job seeker to understand before depositing a check, purchasing equipment, or sending money connected to a new job?
Balmer encourages job seekers to maintain healthy skepticism and ask a trusted person, fraud professional, or credit union to review anything that seems unusual before taking action.
The PSECU Fraud Files: Turning Member Stories Into Fraud Prevention
Q: What fraud or scam trends are having the greatest impact?
Balmer says impostor scams are having the greatest impact. Fraudsters research victims, build trust with detailed stories, and coach them to lie to financial institutions or hand over authentication codes.
How to Build a Fraud Program: Fraud at the Foundation
Q: When does technology actually solve the fraud problem?
Technology solves problems when it is clearly tied to a specific gap in the fraud stack, such as real-time signal integration, cross-channel data interoperability, or reducing alert noise, and when the organization has solid governance and data quality to support it.
