Whether you're a marketer who grapples with this reality on a day-to-day basis or a consumer targeted by these scamsters – you’ll benefit from a better understanding of the tell-tale signs of these online scams. On this episode of Digital gadfly, hosted by Shubho Sengupta, Kavitha Kanaparthi, a Web 3 specialist and entrepreneur, offers tips you can implement right now to vet the credibility of the next message you receive on your phone. First, remember, if it is too good to be true, it is not good for you. Second, always cross-verify all messages with official communication on the official website, especially if its a financial entity.
