Interview: How Outsmart Cyber Attackers

The show aired on October 19, 2022. Beth Tinsman shared that about 60% of people have been victims of cybercrime. Cybercrimes include compromised credit cards, mobile message scams, social media requests from people we don’t know, and fraudulent job filings.
