First AML’s Post

Thank you to Luke Raven for the mention. When I wrote this book, I was aiming to capture a wide audience and since there was no textbooks written on the psychology of fraud, to also inspire more academics to pay attention to this. I really appreciate the shout out 💃 and am currently working on the update too, to include novel scams like pig butchering, AI aided frauds and more sinister grooming techniques, among other things. #fraud #cybersec #cybercrime #phishing #cyberpsychology #infosec #socialengineering #AI #scams #psychology

Lydia Efobi's review of Gunfighters, Thieves and Lawmen by  David Milton McGowan (Goodreads Author), Mar 31, 2023 really liked it This book ensues with a retired gunfighter, Sully Wheeler, who is seeking to stop the rustling of his cows. His sole goal is to end the malicious theft that keeps occurring. A relatively amiable character emerges, showing Edward Theason with the flustered objective in his employment in aiding Sully. This book opens the reader's mind to an array of questions. Is Theason interested in halting the theft Sully complained about, or is he more immersed in vigilante? Read this book to find out. The idea of wanting to steal from a one-time gunfighter yields an unusual plot. Nevertheless, the uniqueness of the book is not an unseating one. Instead, it generates a shift from conventional storylines, birthing a new wave of thrill, action, and satisfaction. Content density is one of the many amiable qualities of this book. The author writes using descriptive language that is relatively wordy yet produces enjoyable prose. His style is relaxed yet striking. He takes charge of his word bank and interchanges breathtaking diction while partly infusing Canadian writing style. Another quality of the book is chapter succession. Its progression from mid-chapter to the end was extraordinary. Nonetheless, the only trouble with this book is that it does not spike interest in the first chapters. The opening chapters feel like a rush of events, leaving the reader to find his bearing. However, the suspense ripens as you proceed, leaving you wanting more and more. Ultimately, the book was engaging and exceptionally well-edited. The content had a solid relation to the title. Thriller buffs or anyone looking to explore an exotic plot should grab a copy of this book. I am rating the book a 4 out of 5 stars. https://lnkd.in/gem3BWz4

Quirky Civilian Crimefighters - A Trope for the Borin' 20's It makes perfect sense: We love solving crimes but have mixed feelings about cops. Enter the Quirky Civilian Crimefighter - what happens when the Manic Pixie Dream Girl matures into an unstoppable woman. Currently racing to syndication, we have two contenders: Elsbeth (CBS) and High Potential (ABC). One's a spinoff, one's a foreign adaptation. One channels 'Columbo vibes' with a proven formula built for longevity. The other demands deeper character development and plot progression. One aims higher, one feels like comfort food. Despite their differences, the similarities are striking. Both have their own unique fashion sense, both insert themselves wherever intrigue leads, and both exude the supreme confidence essential to any crime-solver. But most importantly - they're NOT COPS. Not big-city cops stuck in small-town Alaska. Not small-town cops cleaning up the big city. They have police allies for the heavy lifting, but no badges, no guns. Perfect. They embody this decade's ethos: Internet sleuths, DIY justice, and authentic self-expression. While I hope both survive, odds are slim. The Mouse might sideline Morgan to prop up their sinking boat show on Thursday's at 9pm. Or maybe they'll wise up and move it to FX where Kaitlin's edge can truly shine?
