## Resource

Scams are everywhere and losses are staggering. So today we're having a candid conversation about it and how cryptocurrency is changing everything. Our guest is Brian Watson. He's a retired special agent with IRS criminal investigation. And now works with a nonprofit called R.O.S.E., educating people about costly scams. We'll talk about some of the cases he's seen, including one involving a woman who lost almost three quarters of a million dollars. We'll also talk about the ways to protect your money and how to watch out for your loved ones.
