This morning key information that impacts your wallet.  Did you know that consumer fraud is at an all-time high and scammers daily are seeking new ways to get your hard earn money?  October is National Cyber-security Awareness Month and the American Bankers Association is kicking off a new campaign to educate consumers about the threat of phishing scams.  My guest is Paul Benda – Senior Vice President, Risk and Cybersecurity Policy, American Bankers Association

The American Bankers Association   is launching a first-of-its-kind, industry-wide campaign to educate consumers about the persistent threat of phishing scams.

The campaign is the largest consumer protection initiative in ABA’s history. For more information go here:
