The caller claims that we are victims of a scam. While most of us recognize this as a scam and either refrain from answering or promptly hang up, the persistence of these calls begs the question: why do they continue?
In this lightning talk, we will delve into an emerging modern fraud strategy gaining traction: vishing. We'll explore an introduction to vishing, how it is executed, and the active measures taken by you, the police and banks to combat it.
