SANS Keynote: Uncovering the Dark World of Nation State Scams

Erin West, a leading expert in combating transnational organized crime and the founder of Operation Shamrock, delivers a powerful and eye-opening presentation

In this engaging one-hour talk, Erin will uncover the dark world of 'pig butchering' scams— sophisticated schemes run by global criminal networks that exploit victims through manipulation and financial deception. She will shed light on how these crimes are part of a larger international threat, exploiting gaps in law enforcement, banking, and regulatory systems.

Erin’s work focuses on fostering collaboration between law enforcement, financial institutions, and policymakers to disrupt these criminal enterprises and protect communities worldwide. Her insights will leave you with a deeper understanding of these pervasive crimes, the systemic changes needed to combat them, and how we can all play a role in building a safer, more resilient global community.
