Fraud and scams are on the rise in Southeast Asia, from job scams and forced scam centers to deepfake impersonations and multimillion-dollar corporate fraud.

In this episode of Banking After Hours, I’m joined by Julius Rajeswaran, COO of ‪Ryt Bank, and Tai Vo, Director of Market Planning, Fraud & Identity, APAC at ‪LexisNexis Risk Solutions‬, to explore:

  • Why Southeast Asia is a hotbed for scams
