Inaction is not an option. That is the thesis of United We Stand: A National Strategy to Prevent Scams, a new report from the Aspen Institute. Discussing the report’s recommendations and insights on this edition of the ABA Fraudcast is Kate Griffin, director of Aspen’s National Task Force on Fraud and Scam Prevention.

“The very first call to action is simply that we say that scam prevention needs to be identified as a national priority for us as a country,” Griffin tells ABA’s Paul Benda.

The ABA Fraudcast will be published every three weeks, at the ABA Banking Journal site and wherever you listen to and subscribe to your favorite podcasts, such as Apple and Spotify. Please subscribe!
