Libby Znaimer is joined by Jeff Thomson, a Senior RCMP Intelligence Analyst with the Canadian Anti-Fraud Centre and Yaniv Or, Vice President of Technology and Data at ZoomerMedia Limited.

Just last week, authorities in India shut down a phone scam centre that was targeting Canadians by duping them into handing over money in a scheme that involved their Social Insurance Number information. In that case, 32 people were arrested.
