Ep. - 1743 - SUPER SCAM ME

Mariana van Zeller, the Emmy Award-winning investigative journalist, joins Kate to discuss Super Scam Me, her National Geographic documentary in which she goes undercover as the target of a romance scam. She explains how scammers build trust, exploit emotional vulnerability, and use fake military identities, AI, money mules, and cryptocurrency to deceive victims. Mariana also discusses working with a former hacker to track down her scammer in Ghana—and confronting a man who continues to insist he loves her even after his deception is exposed.
