The State of Fraudcasting
Solution providers across payments and fraud prevention are launching shows right now, and that is a good thing. More voices in this space means more people learning out loud. Jordan sits down with Brian Davis to talk about what it actually takes to keep one running. This one is less about fraud and more about the machine behind the content: setting goals before you set a budget, getting marketing and the C suite aligned on what an episode is supposed to do, and what happens when a sponsor expects conversions from a campaign that was built for awareness. Brian brings the demand gen and community perspective. Jordan brings four years of running a show as a team of one. They get into the guest pool question nobody plans for, where a fraud cast should plant its flag in the funnel, why the attribution argument tends to sort itself out, and how different production models all end up working for different goals. Jordan also walks through his gear stack and the specific choices that make a show look and sound the way he wants, including the piece of equipment most people skip. If you run marketing at a vendor, host a show, appear on webinars, or are thinking about pointing a camera at yourself for the first time, there is something in here worth stealing. Topics covered: Founder led and executive led content strategy Podcast sponsorship goals, CTAs, and realistic expectations First touch and last touch attribution in B2B payments marketing Why enterprise merchants weigh fraud podcast invitations carefully Editorial independence when your show and your employer share a space Recording podcasts on the conference floor Microphones, mirrorless cameras, lighting, and audio levels for video Editing workflows, distribution, and why consistency beats production value Equipment Mentioned and Suggested: Sony a6700 - https://a.co/d/03P0tsuf Shure MV7+ - https://a.co/d/03P0tsuf Shure SM7dB - https://a.co/d/03P0tsuf Fifine Mic - https://a.co/d/03P0tsuf Other mentions: Interface for mic to computer - https://a.co/d/0fCRRpiK Cloudlifter (not needed for Sm7dB only SM7B regular) - https://a.co/d/07HYP75U Sony ZVE-10 (non usb 4k) - https://a.co/d/07HYP75U ------------------------------------ This episode is brought to you by ⁠WhoBilled.me⁠.

AI Fraud Detection Is Now a Commodity — Here's What Actually Wins
Everyone in fraud and risk is building AI agents. Almost nobody is asking the harder question: if every team has access to the same models, what's left that's actually yours? In this episode of Fraudboxer, Jordan sits down with Richard Meng, founder and CEO of Roe AI (YC-backed, San Mateo), and Tal, an 18-year risk leader who has built and scaled programs across fintech, payments, lending, issuing, marketplaces, and merchant environments. Together they make the case that AI itself is becoming a commodity — and that the real competitive advantage is structured risk knowledge: the fraud typologies, investigation frameworks, and institutional expertise that live in your team's heads, in Jira tickets, and in Slack threads where no agent can reach them. The conversation covers why single signals like velocity, device mismatch, and risky IP no longer mean what they used to; why fraud teams stay permanently reactive; what happens to entry-level analyst roles as AI absorbs L1 work — and what new roles replace them; whether rules and machine learning models are dying or just getting a makeover; and why the sub-300ms reality of real-time fraud decisioning means an LLM is never going to be the thing that blocks a transaction. They also get into the idea of an open, industry-wide fraud typology map — a shared taxonomy of attack patterns and recommended investigations that any team's AI agents could consume. Not a data consortium, not PII sharing, and not the kind of closed, invite-only working group that leaves newer practitioners out in the cold. Whether that can actually get built is the open question of the episode. If you work in fraud, risk, compliance, AML, trust and safety, or payments — or you manage a team that does — this one reframes what "using AI" actually means. As Jordan puts it: most people say they use AI, but they're reading AI, not using it. The fraudsters figured out the difference a while ago. WHAT'S COVERED Why AI models are becoming a commodity, and contextual intelligence is the real moat Fraud typologies - ATO, ACH fraud, friendly fraud, push payment fraud, triangulation schemes, return abuse, promo abuse - and why each needs its own investigation path The medicine analogy - why the diagnostic framework beats raw intelligence Velocity, device mismatch, and risky IP - signals that no longer mean fraud on their own What happens to L1 analyst roles, and the new jobs that get created instead Are rules dead? A story from inside Uber's rules engine and the Grafana dashboard that showed fraudsters reverse-engineering rules in real time Why sub-300ms decisioning means rules and ML models aren't going anywhere Rule performance monitoring - the thing almost nobody actually does How Roe AI is building a shared financial crime knowledge base, and whether it should be an open standard Where fraudsters are already outpacing defenders on AI adoption LINKS Roe AI: ⁠https://www.roe-ai.com⁠ Roe AI careers (they're hiring, including SMEs): ⁠https://www.roe-ai.com/careers⁠ Richard Meng on LinkedIn: ⁠https://www.linkedin.com/in/berkeleymeng/⁠ Tal Yeshanov on LinkedIn: ⁠https://www.linkedin.com/in/talyeshanov/⁠ WhoBilled.me: ⁠https://whobilled.me⁠ This episode is brought to you by ⁠WhoBilled.me⁠.

The Frightening New Way Scammers Are Using AI
"In crypto, if your money's gone from your wallet, everything can be gone in one second immediately." Most people picture online scams as one person in a basement sending sketchy emails. The reality is far bigger and far more organized. In this episode, recorded at the Safeguard conference in Colorado Springs, host Jordan sits down with Nikita, co-founder and CEO of ⁠Chain Patrol⁠, to talk about how modern fraud actually works. We get into why stolen crypto almost never comes back, how scam operations now run like real companies with engineers and developers, and how artificial intelligence has made sophisticated attacks cheap enough to target everyday people instead of just high-value executives. Nikita also opens up about the human cost behind these operations, including trafficking victims forced to run scams against their will, and a documentary his team has been quietly working on. We also discuss one of the largest crypto thefts in history, how the attackers pulled it off, and why the weakest point in nearly every story is a person rather than a piece of code. Whether you work in fraud and security or you just want to understand how to keep yourself and your family safe, this one is packed with stories you have not heard and warnings you will want to remember.

The Dark Web’s Biggest Secret: Why Traditional Fraud Tools Simply Don't Work Anymore
"Fraudsters move upstream... We aimed all of our fraud prevention at the checkout. Where did they go? Upstream to the account access." Ever wonder how cybercriminals manage to stay one step ahead of digital security? In this episode, Alexander Hall from ⁠IPQS⁠ takes you behind the scenes while we were at the Safeguard Conference in Colorado. Many businesses focus all their security energy purely on the final checkout page, but the threat landscape is shifting fast. We talk about the hidden traps currently being set across the internet, why traditional security scores often miss the big picture, and how the industry is fighting back. If you want to know how your data is being targeted—and the clever network setups being used to stop attackers before they ever reach a real user—this conversation is a must-watch. Whether you run an online business, work in tech, or just want to understand how the underground economy works, this interview offers a fascinating look into the future of online safety. Checkout ou IPQS here: ⁠https://www.ipqualityscore.com⁠ -------------------------------------------- ➡️ Did you catch the biggest takeaway from our IPQS interview? Fraudsters have moved upstream. They aren’t just hitting your checkout page anymore; they are targeting user accounts, deploying human-like bots, and exploiting stolen identities long before a payment is ever made—meaning that if you rely on traditional post-transaction chargeback data, you are already 90 days too late. That is where IPQS comes in (⁠www.ipqualityscore.com⁠). Trusted by Fortune 500 companies, IPQS uses a global network of over 10,000 live dark web honeypots and real-time Fraud Fusion™ technology to instantly flag account takeovers, malicious residential proxies, and sophisticated botnets before the damage is done.

Your Customer Just Filed a Chargeback… And Took the Product Too!
"Something which is really nice with Visa is that for every problem that they create, they have a solution for it, but you just need to pay for it..." What happens when an impromptu honeymoon scroll on Instagram leads to a complete career pivot into the world of fraud prevention? In this episode of Fraud Boxer, Jordan Harris sits down with Ben Herut, Chief of Staff at Chargeflow, to unpack the complex, fast-moving ecosystem of payment risk and dispute resolution. From the hidden operational burdens that merchants face during a chargeback surge to the psychological toll of fighting friendly fraud, this conversation breaks down why traditional methods just aren't cutting it anymore. If you've ever wondered how major financial shifts correlate directly to a rise in payment disputes, Ben's inside look from both the issuer and acquirer sides provides a rare, dual-perspective view of the industry. The core of the discussion centers around the evolution of Visa's Compelling Evidence rule, shifting from its original framework to the newly updated standards. Jordan and Ben debate the strict timelines merchants now have to navigate, the nuances of cross-merchant and cross-acquirer data tracking, and how the massive looming shadow of the Visa Acquiring Monitoring Program (VAMP) changes the math for ecommerce businesses. Instead of relying on generic tech hype, the episode explores how actual data science, real-time intelligence, and post-payment risk modeling can save a business from losing both its revenue and its physical products. Stick around until the end to hear predictions on agentic commerce, changing network protocols, and how modern banking apps have made it almost too easy for good customers to act bad.

Why Your "Secure" Account is a Fraudster’s Playground (Live at the Incognia Booth!)
Visit ⁠https://www.incognia.com/fraudboxer⁠ to request a free vulnerability test In this special episode filmed live at MRC 2026 in Las Vegas, Jordan sits down with Andre Ferraz, CEO of Incognia, and Steven Coates, Ticketmaster's Director of Global Fraud Prevention, to dissect the evolving landscape of Account Takeover (ATO) attacks. The discussion centers on how modern ATOs have shifted from simple credential theft to sophisticated schemes where the account itself holds more value than a stolen credit card. You will learn why traditional security measures like SMS-based 2FA are increasingly vulnerable to SIM swapping and phishing, and how grounding digital identity in physical location behavior can provide a 99.9% accurate, frictionless authentication experience. By leveraging "smart friction" and indoor location intelligence, platforms can effectively distinguish between a legitimate user setting up a new device and a professional fraudster, ultimately reducing ATO rates to zero.

AI Fools Humans But Can't Fool Physics | Here's Why
Request Your Free Vulnerability Test: https://www.incognia.com/fraudboxer "The amount of investment going toward generating deep fakes is so much bigger than the investment in defending against them; it’s an asymmetrical and impossible challenge." In this episode I sit down again with André Ferraz, CEO and CO-Founder of Incognia, to explore a revolutionary approach to security: shifting the focus from detecting AI to verifying what is grounded in the physical world. As generative AI makes it nearly impossible to distinguish between real and fake digital media, the battle has become asymmetrical. Ferraz explains that while AI can spoof voices, faces, and documents, it cannot replicate a human’s "world line", or the unique trajectory an individual moves through in physical space and time. By leveraging advanced 3D location intelligence and the ecosystem of physical hardware we carry, such as smartwatches and phones, and how Incognia creates an identity signal based on pure physics. This strategy moves beyond point-in-time checks to analyze behavioral consistency, ensuring that a user’s digital presence matches their real-world environment.

Many of these people aren't even committing the crime; they’re just building the software for the fraudsters." In this episode of Fraud Boxer, Jordan Harris sits down with Andre Ferraz, CEO and Co-founder of Incognia, to pull back the curtain on the booming Fraud as a Service (FaaS) economy. We move beyond basic surface-level threats to discuss the sophisticated supply chain of hardware and software like app cloners, device farms, and GPS spoofing tools that allow bad actors to automate and scale attacks with professional efficiency. Ferraz explains how these tools, often disguised as legitimate developer resources, enable massive "buy for you" schemes and welcome bonus abuse. You will learn why traditional device fingerprinting and GPS signals are no longer enough to stop modern fraudsters and how location-based behavioral biometrics can ground digital signals in the physical world to identify even the most elusive device resets and bot rings.

Your Best Customer Is a Bot? The Wild Reality of Agentic AI
"The worst part about agentic commerce is that, unfortunately, these are the best customers you will ever get. These people are 100% intending to purchase." This episode features a deep dive into the future of agentic commerce, exploring how autonomous AI agents are moving beyond simple searches to actually making purchases on behalf of consumers. Robbie MacDiarmid from CMSPI joins me to discuss the technical challenges of securing bot-driven transactions, and the necessity of new payment protocols to handle this automated traffic. We examine the friction between traditional fraud prevention, which has spent years trying to block bots, and a new reality where these agents might actually be a merchant's most valuable, high-intent customers. From biometric authentication and "proof of work" to the potential for AI to handle the "toil" of daily life like grocery shopping and doctor appointments, this conversation provides a professional look at how the fintech landscape must adapt to a world where bots, not humans, are clicking the buy button.

No One is Talking about the Downsides of Agentic AI
Get your free guide to ready your business for Agentic AI from DataDome here: https://rb.gy/v3bc27 "It’s not as dumb as the original bots that were just repeating an action. The agent will see that you’re releasing a new security feature and adapt in hours. It changes the way you fight." In this episode we sit down with industry veteran Simon Marchand from DataDome to discuss the rapidly evolving landscape of Agentic AI and its impact on digital commerce. As we navigate 2026, the shift from basic bots to autonomous AI agents is transforming how consumers shop, but it is also handing fraudsters a powerful new toolkit. Simon shares his 16-year journey from bank practitioner to evangelizing advanced security technologies, explaining why businesses must adapt to this new revenue stream without falling victim to high-speed, automated attacks.

From CIA to Cyber Intelligence: 2026 Cyber Intelligence Predictions!
Get the 2026 Predictions Report: ⁠HERE⁠ Cybersecurity expert and former CIA analyst Adam Darrah from ZeroFox joins us to share critical insights from their new ⁠industry forecast ⁠on the evolving threat landscape through 2026. We discuss how professionalized criminal groups and nation-state actors are moving beyond simple scams to execute sophisticated operations that blend human psychology with high-tech automation. While the rise of gen AI has simplified the process for attackers to create believable social engineering campaigns, the most significant shift lies in the hybrid approach where technology handles the heavy lifting of data discovery before human specialists step in to finalize the exploit. We also provide a rare look at the strategic motivations behind ransomware and the shifting dynamics of the dark web, offering a professional perspective on why traditional security measures must adapt to combat more calculated, economically driven digital threats.

Payments Corner: Money 20/20 Recap!
"Now to watch crypto move into stablecoin as opposed to cryptocurrency, it really seems to be moving stablecoin into the main stage." Jacqueline and Jordan both attended Money 20/20 this year in Vegas! We discuss our experience there in this episode of payments corner and how we feel it marked a pivotal shift for the financial industry as it moved from theoretical hype to tangible execution. The conference highlighted how financial technology is being rebuilt around this core infrastructure, transitioning from simple automation to "agentic commerce" where autonomous AI agents manage entire shopping cycles, from discovery to secure payment. Beyond AI, the passage of stablecoin legislation has catalyzed a new era of "programmable money," leading major institutions like Western Union to launch their own digital payment tokens for faster, 24/7 cross-border settlements. As these instant payment rails become the global baseline, the focus has intensified on building an "architecture of trust"—replacing static security with adaptive, AI-driven fraud prevention and "Know Your Agent" (KYA) frameworks to safely manage autonomous financial interactions.
