Credit union fraud cases are growing in complexity and creativity, from internal embezzlement and account takeover schemes to synthetic identities and cyber-enabled crimes. Behind every headline is a story of how systems failed, red flags were missed and lessons were learned the hard way.

Michael Ogden will be joined by CU Times Senior Reporter Peter Strozniak, whose investigative reporting has exposed some of the industry’s most shocking and instructive true crime cases. Together, they’ll dig into:

• Real-world fraud and crime stories inside credit unions, and how they were uncovered.
• The human and operational vulnerabilities criminals exploit.
• The warning signs credit unions can’t afford to ignore.
• The evolving role of technology, training and governance in fraud prevention.
• What these cases reveal about risk management and member trust in 2025.

Join us live for an unfiltered look at the darker side of credit union operations, and what leaders can do to stay one step ahead.
