***SUICIDE WARNING: There are two discussions of suicide in this episode. Listen with caution***In this episode, we are bringing you something a little different.As part of Nick's work, he talks to a lot of scammers on social media and elsewhere. Most of the time, once they find out about what he does for a living, they block him and run a mile.Some, however, keep talking. The interviews you hear in today's episode are the results of those conversations.It's the world of scams, but the version you don't usually hear: the scammer's.  Are you interested in seeing Nick do a talk in person? Next year, he’s taking his live show, How to Beat Scammers, around the UK. It’s going to be a fascinating exploration of the scam business, including tales from Nick’s years working undercover in dodgy businesses, a journey through the global geography of the scam industry and even interactive tests of your scam awareness! Tickets and dates are here 🎟️: https://www.nlp-ltd.com/how-to-beat-scammers/ Follow Nick on social media 📲: https://www.instagram.com/staplenickhttps://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61560761650658 (fan page for anti-scam content etc)https://www.facebook.com/staplenick (personal page)https://x.com/staplenick https://www.tiktok.com/staplenick Have you been scammed?
