Tony Sales is probably the only man in the world to have ever worked at both the summit of organised crime and the pinnacle of fraud and loss prevention.

Jenny Radcliffe

Aka “The People Hacker” – is a force to be reckoned with.

She can diffuse a crisis situation, talk her way into a secure building and spot a psychopath at a hundred paces. She has been called a mind reader and a ‘human lie detector’.

In reality, she is an expert in Social Engineering (the human element of security), negotiations, non-verbal communication & deception, using her skills to help clients from the security industry protect themselves from malicious social engineering attacks.
