In this episode, Jordan welcomes Erin West and Andrew Austin to discuss the human aspect of pig butchering scams. Erin is leading the charge in education, prosecution, and victim advocacy in the complex world of pig butchering which is a combination of a romance and cryptocurrency scam. It lures victims into a fake romantic or friendship relationship, builds trust, and eventually convinces them to invest in crypto, only for scammers to drain all their funds.
Here are some of the topics covered:
- The emotional manipulation used in scams, which makes it difficult for victims to recognize the fraud until it's too late.
- Jordan reflects on his evolving views, realizing the importance of empathy toward victims and understanding the human side of fraud.
- Scammers now using more sophisticated techniques, including fake profiles and fake job offers, to lure victims.
- Law enforcement struggles with handling cryptocurrency crimes due to the complexity and evolving nature of the scams.
- The need for better victim support systems and education to help the public and local authorities recognize and prevent scams.
- And so much more!
Erin is leading the charge with her Operation Shamrock movement to educate, seize, and disrupt. She is looking for victims, law enforcement, and finance partners to join and help her bring the fight and education to the masses. Please visit https://operationshamrock.org/ to learn how YOU can help!
