Every scam has three moments that matter: before it reaches you, while it is happening and after the damage is done. In this Lunch and Learn, B’nai Jehudah member and corporate security expert Marc Jacobs walks through all three. Drawing on 25 years as an investigator/protection specialist working alongside federal agencies like the FBI, DEA, Homeland Security and assisting the Secret Service, Marc explains how scammers choose their targets and why their tactics work on smart, careful people. You will learn to spot the red flags in phone calls, emails, texts and dating apps, and you will get a clear plan for what to do if something feels off. It is practical, friendly and built for real life, with lunch and plenty of time for your questions. Each attendee will leave with a handout of what to do before, during and after a scammer’s initial contact and who to contact next. You can copy it and share it with family and friends.
