Welcome to the Identity Theft Resource Center's (ITRC) Weekly Breach Breakdown for October 4, 2024. I'm Alex Achten, Director of Communications & Media Relations of the ITRC. Thanks to Sentilink for supporting the ITRC and this podcast. Each week, we look at the most recent events and trends related to data security and privacy. Throughout this podcast, we have discussed many scams, ranging from QR and AI voice cloning to Olympic and toll road scams. The latest scam to make the rounds is a perfect example of no low being too low for identity criminals. There are many different variations of funeral scams: Prepaid package funeral scams, impersonation scams and burial insurance scams, to name a few. However, have you heard of funeral streaming scams? We will discuss them. Follow on LinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/company/idtheftcenter/ Follow on X: twitter.com/IDTheftCenter
