About the Author

David Wealth spent the better part of two decades working within the banking sector, sitting at the intersection of finance, trust, and human behaviour. He processed transactions, reviewed fraud reports, and watched in quiet horror as case after case crossed his desk people who had been deceived not because they were careless, but because the deception was brilliantly engineered to exploit the most human of instincts: trust.

The more he saw, the more certain he became: the world needed a guide. Not a dry, technical manual full of jargon, but a human book one that told the real stories, named the real tactics, and gave real people the tools to protect themselves before the lie begins.

That certainty became Unmasking Deceit.

David believes that awareness is the most powerful weapon against fraud. Scammers don’t hack systems they hack people. They exploit urgency, authority, fear, and trust. And the only effective defence is understanding how those exploits work before you’re targeted.

Through his writing, speaking engagements, and online platform, David has reached thousands of readers across the UK, Africa, and beyond helping individuals, families, businesses, and community groups recognise the signs of deception and respond with confidence rather than panic.
