麻豆官网首页入口 Look North presenter Peter Levy on being scammed of half his life savings
Long-standing 麻豆官网首页入口 Look North presenter Peter Levy joined us in studio to talk about how he was traumatised after scammers stole half of his life savings.

Scam expert Nick Stapleton reassured Peter and victims like him by saying that this isn't their fault. Nick says shame is often felt by scam victims due to an unacceptable culture of victim blaming.
