Trump Campaigns in Republican Territory; LinkedIn Scams

View descriptionShare
 

President Donald Trump declared at a rally in Alabama that his economic agenda had helped attract investment and jobs in a midterm campaign pitch to a state that has long been staunchly Republican. New AP polling indicates that Americans are unhappy with how President Trump is handling the economy.

Also this weekend, a fraud investigator known online as “The Profiler,” tells Bloomberg This Weekend that AI is helping scammers create increasingly convincing fake recruiters and job listings that can lead victims to surrender money and sensitive personal information.

On today's show, Bloomberg This Weekend hosts David Gura, Christina Ruffini, and Lisa Mateo speak with:

- Josh Wingrove, Bloomberg News Senior White House Correspondent, on President Trump's campaign stops and the separatist movement in Alberta.

- Jay Jones, “The Profiler,” on the scam jobs populating LinkedIn and how to protect yourself from becoming a target.

- Sarah Rappaport, Bloomberg Pursuits Lifestyle Writer, on the popularity of small luxury hotels with room counts in the single digits.

Plus, Christina, David, and Lisa play Pointed: The News Quiz for Risk Takers.
