Description

Taxes are the price we pay for a civilized society. Scammers are anything but civilized.

In this episode, we'll tell you about how scammers get into public money and how they drain millions away. Public officials should know better and train employees in how to avoid scammers' traps. It's a bugaboo of mine, so you'll hear more stories in our News segments. It's a big issue. This is a great place to understand how vulnerable your money is.
