In this episode of Fraudology, host Karisse Hendrick is joined by Jay Jones, a copywriter turned globally recognized external threat and impersonation risk consultant known as "The Profiler". After being unexpectedly laid off in late 2023, Jay became a target for sophisticated scammers on LinkedIn, sparking a new mission to protect job seekers and corporations alike.

Jay breaks down the "Scammer Pipeline," a three-tiered lifecycle ranging from quick resume harvesting to long-term identity theft and financial draining. They dive deep into the psychology of "Layoff PTSD" and how fraudsters exploit the "fight or flight" response of vulnerable job seekers. Jay also shares how he has helped take down over 46,000 fake jobs and exposed the alarming trend of hijacked high-authority profiles being used to bypass trust. Tune in to learn how both individuals and companies can defend themselves against the evolving landscape of recruitment fraud.

Fraudology is hosted by Karisse Hendrick, a fraud fighter with decades of experience advising hundreds of the biggest ecommerce companies in the world on fraud, chargebacks, and other forms of abuse impacting a company's bottom line.
