I love your podcast. The only western country in the world that has used checks the last 25 years is the US. This could not have happened in Europe even when they were still used (rarely) 30 years ago. It is SUPER interesting, but very exotic to hear about! 💖

Such a heartbreaking episode! The scammers truly didn’t care that they had drained the entire life savings of their victim AND made her quit her job. I’m so glad podcasts like this raise awareness of this devastating problem.

Good to keep seniors apprised of the multitude of scammers out there. Sad stories that need to be shared.
Apple Podcasts5eg portlandUnited States2 months ago - Help for Todd Alper?
Can Mr. Alper create a website and search terms that would at the very least direct Internet traffic, and provide a narrative about who he is and about the scam so that at least some people should be able to figure out that they should not try to work with the “attorney” Todd Alper? That’s what I would do. I haven’t finished listening, so if he does this, I haven’t got there yet.
