This episode is from an earlier interview with Monica Eaton-Cardone the COO at Chargebacks911. She was interviewed by The Hosts on WFLA.

During the four-minute segment, Monica talked about the risk sources consumers face this year. There are new and different threats surfacing every day, and consumers need to stay sharp to thwart them. “The first rule in defense is to make sure you’re discerning,” Monica explains. “Don’t take anything for granted, verify everything, especially from a financial institution. Anything that has access to cash or something that has value: second-guess, third-guess it. Call your bank and be sure it came from them.”

Of course, fraud prevention is hard to break-down into a simple “black-and-white” binary. There are no firm rules in place that denote a fraud attack. Similarly, there are no perfect techniques to ensure consumers won’t still be victimized.
