Fraud vs. Scam - Same Circus, Different Clowns

In this episode of Cranks Creek Life, we break down the real differences between fraud and scams - who's pulling the strings, how they hit your bank account, and why one might get you your money back while the other leaves you broke. Quick, blunt, and a little dark - this episode strips away the jargon and exposes how deception really works in the banking world. Fraud takes your money. Scams make you give it away.
