Commsrisk Top Ten for August 2017

Did you miss a big story? Catch up with the rundown of the most popular Commsrisk articles during August.

It seems likely that Commsrisk will change its name in the future. The two choices are: Morrowrisk or Commsmorrow, because fraud consultant Dave Morrow continues to dominate the charts with his extremely popular articles about corruption and bribery. Or perhaps we should call it Commorrowrisk instead. If Dave wrote ten articles per month then there would be no room for anyone else on our regular monthly rundown.

These are the ten Commsrisk articles that attracted the largest audience during August, as measured by unique page views.

  1. SIMbox bribery: the answer
  2. Telco corruption fuels SIMbox frauds
  3. Not every telco knew EU roaming rules had changed…
