Microsoft Security Updates, and China-US Cyber Tensions – HEAL Security Dispatch

In this special public service episode, Judge Elizabeth Gunn is joined by Rebecca A. Earl and Dana McWay to explore a growing and often overlooked corner of bankruptcy fraud: the exploitation of unclaimed funds. With over half a billion dollars currently held in unclaimed distributions, the system has become a target for fraudsters employing everything from falsified assignments to identity theft and wire fraud to steal from legitimate creditors.

The episode unpacks the legitimate process for recovering unclaimed funds and how bad actors have learned to exploit it. From fund locators—some legitimate, some not—to individuals impersonating creditors or creating companies with identical names to the true payees, the guests reveal just how elaborate these schemes have become. 

This cautionary tale doesn’t follow one fraudster—it shines a spotlight on a systemic vulnerability, offering insight into what courts and clerks are doing to protect the system. 

Tune in to hear how the courts are fighting back against this wave of bankruptcy fraud.

Future U.S. president John Adams was defending British soldiers accused of opening fire on protesters in what would become known as the Boston Massacre before the American Revolution. In his defense, which was successful, he wrote: “Facts are stubborn things.” As was true in 1770, is still true today.

The Weekly Breach Breakdown Podcast: NSA Popup Warning - What If You See a Suspicious Popup? - S6E32

Welcome to the Identity Theft Resource Center’s (ITRC) Weekly Breach Breakdown for November 7, 2025. I’m Tatiana Cuadras, Communications Assistant for the ITRC. Thanks to SentiLink for their support of the podcast and the ITRC. Each week, we look at the most recent events and trends related to data security and privacy. This week, we discuss how artificial intelligence (AI) search tools can be fooled by fake content, a form of AI manipulation that’s reshaping how systems learn and interpret information.

I assume that we are all aware of how AI is reshaping how we access and process information. However, it turns out some of these “smart” systems aren’t as smart as we thought. In fact, new research shows that AI can be fooled easily. Think of it like your mom seeing an AI-generated photo of you and Michael Jackson on Facebook and telling all her coworkers that you actually met the Michael Jackson. The image looks so real that she believes it even though it’s completely fake. That’s exactly how some AI systems get “fooled” by realistic but false information.
