TN League Fraud Prevention Summit 2026

Fraud is rising at an alarming rate across the Southeast, with Tennessee residents losing over $160 million to internet scams in 2023 alone—and another $133.6 million in reported fraud-related complaints. The threat to credit unions, members, and bottom lines is real, urgent, and escalating.

The Tennessee League Fraud Prevention Summit 2026 delivers the focused, action-oriented response credit unions need. This premier two-day conference moves beyond alarming statistics to equip leaders, compliance teams, and frontline staff with practical strategies, emerging insights, and proven tools to detect, prevent, and respond to sophisticated fraud threats.

We are proud to serve as the Emcee for the entire event, setting the stage, facilitating transitions, and guiding dynamic discussions to ensure maximum engagement and value for every attendee. From opening remarks to closing reflections, our role keeps the energy high and the focus sharp on real-world application.

Key Sessions and Highlights Include:

• The Psychology of Fraud – Understanding social engineering, cognitive biases, and how to interrupt scam triggers.
• Open Banking and AI – Navigating data ownership, oversight, liability, and AI’s role in amplifying or preventing fraud.
• Scam to SAR – Bridging the gap from victim incidents to Suspicious Activity Reporting and compliance.
• Cybersecurity and Crypto – Addressing risks from digital assets, blockchain, and evolving cyber threats.
• Trusted Contacts and Elder Financial Exploitation – Protecting vulnerable members through red flags, trusted-agent protocols, and escalation workflows.
• Additional deep dives into check fraud resurgence, document fraud detection, payment scheme tactics, financial crime convergence (including FBI insights), operational gaps, and building a comprehensive fraud playbook.

The summit features leading experts from organizations like Critical Ops, Palmera Consulting, Carefull, Inscribe, Federal Reserve Financial Services, Velera, Fortress SRM, RiskScout, and more—plus panels with credit union leaders sharing frontline experiences.
