Scams, Fraud & AI – The $1 Trillion Dollar Industry We Can’t Ignore

Virtual Event

Fraud, scams and financial crimes are no longer a fringe issue; in 2024 globally we lost over $1 TRILLION (Source – GASA). In this compelling keynote, Tracy Hall draws from her deeply personal journey of being the final victim of Hamish McLaren, one of Australia’s most notorious conmen. The story was first exposed through the hit podcast by The Australian WHO THE HELL IS HAMISH and Tracy has since gone on to write a memoir about her experiences of losing her life savings ($317,000) to a man she loved and trusted. Through raw storytelling and insightful analysis, Tracy sheds light on the devastating impact of fraud, the stigma of victim-blaming, and how the rapid advancement of AI is reshaping the landscape of scams for both corporations and criminals.
This keynote is not just a cautionary tale; it is a call to action for individuals, communities, and organisations to build financial and digital resilience, educate themselves on scams and fraud, recognise vulnerabilities, support victim pathways and foster vigilance in an increasingly deceptive world.
