What The Fraud?

Show Notes

“Trust may sound soft, but in practice it’s the hardest currency there is… and in a world of AI, bots, and fraud, trust can make or break a platform.”

As AI grows more complex and cybercriminals more sophisticated, the need to earn and protect trust has never been greater. In this episode, we dive into why trust is at the centre of digital identity, how businesses can build it, and what happens when it breaks.

Our special guests this week are Eddie Moxon-Garcia, Product Marketing Lead at Sumsub, and Nikolai Suhharnikov, Head of Technical Presales at Sumsub. Together they share insights from working with some of the world’s largest companies on fraud protection, verification, and identity.

From synthetic IDs and deepfakes to regulation, transparency, and reusable digital identity, this conversation explores how businesses, regulators, and users can meet in the middle to create trust online.
