Protecting What Matters Most

Twenty years of experience teaching Australians to recognise and prevent financial fraud before it strikes

It Started with One Phone Call

Back in 2004, my elderly neighbour Meredith knocked on my door in tears. She'd just lost ,000 to a phone scammer who convinced her she'd won a lottery. That night changed everything for me.

As a former bank security officer, I knew the warning signs. But Meredith didn't. Neither did her friends, her family, or thousands of other Australians falling victim to increasingly sophisticated scams every single day.

So I started small — hosting coffee mornings in community centres, teaching pensioners about phone scams. Word spread. The sessions grew. Soon I was running workshops for businesses, schools, and government agencies across Queensland.

"The best defence against fraud isn't complex software or expensive security systems. It's education. When people know what to look for, they stop falling for it."

Why Fraud Prevention Education Works

We don't just tell people about scams. We teach them to think like fraudsters — and that's what makes the difference.

R

Real Experience

Every workshop draws on actual case studies from Australian victims. No theoretical scenarios — just real stories that stick in your memory when it counts.

P

Practical Tools

We teach simple verification techniques, red-flag recognition, and decision-making frameworks that work under pressure. Skills you can use immediately.

S

Safe Practice

Our simulated scenarios let you experience fraud attempts in a controlled environment. Learn to trust your instincts without risking your money.

Background & Expertise

Former Commonwealth Bank security investigator with 12 years in fraud detection. Certified by the Australian Institute of Criminology in financial crime prevention. I've personally investigated over 2,000 fraud cases and trained more than 15,000 Australians since 2005.

Teaching Philosophy

Fraud education shouldn't scare people into paranoia. My sessions focus on building confidence through knowledge. Students learn to spot manipulation tactics, verify unusual requests, and trust their gut feelings when something doesn't feel right.

Current Focus

With cryptocurrency scams and AI-powered voice cloning becoming mainstream threats in 2025, I'm constantly updating our curriculum. Recent workshops cover deepfake detection, crypto investment red flags, and social media-based romance scams targeting over-50s Australians.
