Lydia Benecke - Von Hochstapelei, Betrug und Gaslighting

In the organizer's words:

Fraudsters, con artists and deceivers are everywhere, and their greatest skill is the manipulation of human emotions. Those who control a person's emotions can easily exert control over their decisions. The goals of manipulators range from attention and affection to money and status. Criminal psychologist Lydia Benecke uses case studies to explain the various methods of exercising power through manipulation. Anyone who believes they are immune to such strategies is making a serious mistake that has already been the undoing of many. Only those who understand the psychological strategies of manipulation can consciously protect themselves from falling victim to them.
