💔 Love shouldn’t come with a catch.

As we lean into the season of connection, it's important to remember that not every online "match" has your best interests at heart. Romance scams are sophisticated ploys where fraudsters pose as love interests to build trust—only to lead victims into financial ruin through phishing, money mule schemes, or real-time payment fraud.

At DataVisor, we are committed to helping individuals and organizations stay ahead of these evolving threats.

👁️‍🗨️ Common Tactics to Watch For:

- Catfishing
Imposters use attractive photos and compelling backstories to lure victims into online-only relationships.

- Military & Long-Distance Scams
Fraudsters claim to be traveling or deployed overseas, using their "location" as an excuse for why they can't meet—and why they suddenly need money for "emergencies".

- Pig Butchering
A slow-play tactic where scammers "fatten up" victims by encouraging cryptocurrency investments before stealing everything and disappearing.

- Blackmail & Extortion
Scammers may pressure victims into sharing explicit content, only to use it as leverage for financial gain.

🚩 Red Flags for Your Radar:

- Love Bombing

- The "Perfect" Persona

- The Pivot to Crypto

- Avoidance

- Urgency

- Unsolicited Links

- Inconsistency

🛡️ How DataVisor Protects the Ecosystem
Detecting these scams requires more than just looking at a profile. Our AI-powered platform uses advanced techniques to catch fraudsters in real-time:

➡️ 360 User Profiling & Anomaly Detection: Identifying sudden changes in location or interaction frequency that signal a compromised account.
➡️ Device Fingerprinting: Tracking the technical "DNA" of devices to uncover fraudulent networks.
➡️ Geospatial Analysis: Spotting discrepancies between where a user claims to be and where their digital activity actually originates.

DEFEND webinar sparked a great conversation with Kamal Hubbard and Hao Li, and we carried it forward on the latest episode of "What the F Happened? Fraud & Financial Crime, Deconstructed."

This podcast is a recap + deeper discussion on what’s really happening beneath the headlines: stablecoins, Web3, fraud tactics, and why the on-ramp is becoming the front line for financial crime prevention.

A few moments that stuck with us:
💬 “It’s trying to build a fence that’s safe enough for grandma, but open enough for innovation.”
💬 “You cannot algorithmically wish value into existence.”
💬 “You have to stop them at the velvet rope. Because once they get into the club, it’s too dark, too loud, and too crowded to find them.”

We also unpacked:
– Why stablecoins have quietly become the bridge between traditional finance and Web3
– What happened in the Terra Luna collapse
– How mixers and no-KYC exchanges are being used to obfuscate fraud
– Why behavioral signals at fiat-to-crypto on-ramps are now the most critical control point

If you joined the webinar, this episode adds context and connective tissue.
If you missed it, this is a great place to start.

🎧 Listen, follow, and let us know what resonated most.

"Trust is weaponized before money moves." - Kamal Hubbard

In this clip from our latest webinar, Kamal Hubbard (Author and Advisor, Cage Chain Media Group) and Hao Li (Chief Solution Architect, DataVisor) dive into one of the most effective tactics used by modern scammers: Affinity Fraud.

Digital assets and Web3 offer incredible transparency, but bad actors are exploiting "knowledge gaps" and shared identities to bypass traditional defenses. From veteran communities to senior citizens, scammers are building credibility within trusted groups to strike before anyone even realizes the risk.

A huge thank you to Kamal and Hao for sharing such critical insights on new payment rails, the evolving regulatory landscape, and real-time fraud prevention strategies.

Stop fraud before the money moves. Watch the full recording now to see the complete breakdown of today’s biggest digital asset risks and the strategies that stop them.

“Life’s most persistent and urgent question is: What are you doing for others?” — Martin Luther King Jr.

Today, we honor Dr. King’s legacy by reflecting on the responsibility we all share to act with integrity, to stand up for what’s right, and to build systems that serve people fairly.

Progress doesn’t come from words alone. It comes from choices we make every day: to reduce harm and to create trust.

On this Martin Luther King Jr. Day, may we keep asking the hard questions and doing the work that answers them.

We’re growing, and that growth starts with people!

This week, we welcomed new sales team members to DataVisor with an immersive bootcamp focused on our customers, our platform, and the real-world fraud challenges they’ll help solve.

We capped it off with some friendly competition at the bowling alley, because strong teams are built through shared experiences—both in and out of the office. 🎳

Welcome to the team. We’re excited to build, learn, and win together.

Most teams think macro volatility is a policy problem.
It’s actually a margin problem, and your risk stack decides who absorbs the hit.

Pricing pressure. Regulatory shifts. Faster payment rails.
Any one of these can change the economics overnight. They expose how flexible, or rigid, your risk stack really is.

If you own fraud, risk, or P&L at an issuer or fintech, these are the five questions that matter most right now:

• Where are we rigid?
• Where are we blind?
• What’s our profit-recovery plan if margins compress?
• Do we have a platform—or a patchwork?
• How fast can we test and prove value on real data?

This isn’t about predicting the next macro shift.

It’s about whether your fraud and AML platform can adapt fast enough when it happens.

📘 In this article, our COO Tony Kueh breaks down why macro volatility increasingly favors flexible, real-time fraud & AML platforms, and how leading teams are turning risk into a margin lever, not just a control function.

As we look back at 2025 photos, we’re reminded that progress happens in communities.

From speaking on industry stages to welcoming customers at our annual conference, this year was full of moments that brought people together. Behind the scenes, it also included team barbecues, parties, and giving back through our annual Christmas Giving Tree.

These moments reflect what matters most to us: learning from one another and showing up for our customers, our peers, and our communities.

Thank you to everyone who shared time, ideas, and energy with us last year. We’re grateful for the conversations, the collaboration, and the momentum we’re carrying forward into the year ahead.
