The Technology podcast, podcast 378: a Blind man’s story of getting scammed

Welcome to the podcast. Its not typical we hear about stories where someone who is disabled getting scammed and it covered in mainstream media.

The podcast where this comes from is a mainstream podcast and we blogged about the article earlier this year. It’ll be linked again.

The RSS feed has it. If you don’t have RSS, than the 29.58mb file will be here for you.

Here are the show notes for you, and I hope you enjoy this! Thanks to the podcast that aired this, and you’ll find a link to the podcast where this is coming from so you can subscribe.


Hello folks, welcome to another technology podcast. On this podcast, we’re going to listen to a story on how someone who is blind was looking for something and how he got taken for $1,000. It isn’t as simple as it could be, seeing how he used the Twitter web site and we know how that could be since Twitter, know known as X, got rid of their accessibility team.

Back in August, I blogged This is a true story of a blind man losing to a scam … this is a must read which links to a Wired article. The podcast you’re about to hear comes from Discarded, a proofpoint podcast. It aired in October of this yeqar and I recently listened to it.

For those who are Apple, here’s a link to the podcast. DISCARDED: Tales From the Threat Research TrenchesProofpoint

The podcast is also available through Overcast if you use that.

I hope people find this story of interest, and thanks so much for listening! We’ll see you next time.
