Canadians are losing life savings to investment schemes that begin in overseas fraud factories. Victims are urged to sign up by fake ads on social media that use AI to generate convincing news reports and celebrity endorsements. The scammers pose as financial advisors, confident in their ability to evade arrest as they rake in tens of thousands of dollars a month. An unprecedented leak from inside one fraud factory exposes details of the deceit using the scammers’ own files, phone calls and screen recordings. Marketplace, Enquête and a global team of journalists join forces to unmask the criminals and track down their victims. #Marketplace #scam 00:00 - Intro 05:21 - How the scam works 10:05 - Going to Tbilisi, Georgia 16:37 - Public Safety Minister Gary Anandasangaree responds »»» Subscribe to CBC News to watch more videos: http://bit.ly/1RreYWS For breaking news, video, audio and in-depth coverage: https://www.cbc.ca/news Follow CBC News on TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@cbcnews Subscribe to CBC News on Snapchat: https://bit.ly/3leaWsr Download the CBC News app for iOS: http://apple.co/25mpsUz Download the CBC News app for Android: http://bit.ly/1XxuozZ »»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»» For more than 80 years, CBC News has been the source Canadians turn to, to keep them informed about their communities, their country and their world.
