0:00 43:22

Account takeovers have become one of the biggest challenges in fraud prevention.

In this episode of What The Fraud, Tom is joined by Suz Lynch, Head of Financial Crime, and Paul Marsden, Head of Risk at Monavate, to explore how fraudsters gain access to trusted accounts, why account takeovers are becoming harder to detect, and how businesses can respond.

From behavioural monitoring and AI-driven scams to the balance between security and customer experience, they discuss the warning signs, emerging threats, and practical steps organisations can take to stay ahead.

Whether you're working in fraud, fintech, payments, or compliance, this episode offers valuable insights into one of the fastest-growing risks in digital finance.
