You Just Thought Your Home Was Safe

By Robert Riggs

You lock your doors at night. You check on your kids.

But what if the real threat is already inside—hiding in your phone, your smart TV, or your child’s video game chat?

In this episode of True Crime Reporter®, former federal probation officer Art Bowker takes us into the digital battlefield unfolding inside your home.

Bowker’s book Surviving a Cyberattack: Securing Social Media and Protecting Your Home warns how predators groom teenagers with flattery, how romance scammers bleed retirees dry, and how artificial intelligence is being weaponized to impersonate loved ones.

Bowker and his coauthor Todd Shipley call themselves “The Cyber Safety Guys”.

This is the story about how cybercriminals not only bleed their victims but leave them emotionally devastated, isolated, and too ashamed to ask for help.
