Profile
When the first member of Scattered Canary, who, for the purposes of this report, we call
Alpha, began his operations, he was a lone wolf—working mostly Craigslist scams as he learned
the tricks of the trade from a mentor. However, within a few years, he had honed his craft
enough to expand into romance scams, where he met his first “employee,” Beta. Once they
had secured enough mules via their romance scams to launder their stolen money, they shifted
from targeting individuals to targeting enterprises, and the group’s BEC operation was born.
