Send us a Text Message.

Today we are discussing some of the psychological reasons behind why we are all prone to getting scammed! 

For the show we answered three main questions: 
Why do scams work?
What is the psychology behind scams? And,
Who is prone to falling for scams?

During the episode we explain how our brain gets hijacked by a good story which causes us to lose our ability to think critically and rationally.
