This week on the VET S.O.S. podcast, we bring you an essential conversation that every veteran and their family needs to hear. Our guest is Inspector Carroll Harris, a 33-year government service professional, Marine Corps veteran, and national advocate for the Operation Protect Veterans campaign through the U.S. Postal Inspection Service.

Scams targeting veterans are on the rise—and they’re more sophisticated than ever. From fake charities to fraudulent VA loan schemes, scammers are leveraging the trust and camaraderie veterans share to manipulate and exploit. But there’s good news: education and awareness can protect you.

In this episode, Carroll breaks it all down:

• The most common scams targeting veterans in 2025

• Why veterans are statistically more vulnerable to fraud (40% more likely!)

• The impact of identity theft, predatory lending, and benefits fraud

• A practical 3-step tool: Pause. Breathe. Connect. — to resist high-pressure scam tactics

• Personal transition reflections and how battle buddies can help each other stay safe

We also explore the emotional and mental side of transition—especially how scammers prey on vulnerability during difficult life phases like PTSD, financial stress, and post-service isolation.

Whether you're a veteran navigating the civilian world, an active-duty service member preparing for separation, or a family member trying to support a loved one, this episode is packed with vital insights and tools to keep you one step ahead.
