Available for over a year

In today's phone in we're asking: Have you ever been put under the spell of someone trying to scam you? "The Spell" is what banks and financial institutions call the psychological manipulation a scam puts you under that makes you follow it through against your better judgement. This week on You and Yours we're describing how this psychological manipulation works. How criminals convince people, even some of the cleverest people, to hand over their money. Have you ever been put under the spell of someone trying to scam you? If you managed to break the spell before the scammer stole your money, what was it that made you realise it was a scam?
