Simpson
Hi Rashad,
My name is Fred Simpson — I write under the name Jameson Lyon — and I’d love to join your podcast as a guest to share a perspective your audience may not have heard before.
I’m a retired industrial construction manager. For most of my life, I stayed off social media. But after losing my wife of 46 years, I turned to the internet to reconnect and fill the silence.
What I didn’t expect was to become the target of dozens of scammers, hackers, and fraudsters. From romance scams and crypto schemes to phishing, fake identities, and messaging app manipulation — I encountered them all. Over 100 times.
Rather than keep quiet, I decided to document everything.
The result is Cyber Time:
A cautionary tale backed by 100+ real encounters, complete with photos and stats
A guide through romance scams, crypto fraud, catfishing, phishing, and lesser-known threats in apps like Facebook, WhatsApp, Signal, Instagram, and more
A reflection on grief, vulnerability, and healing in the digital age
This isn’t theory — it’s what really happens when unsuspecting people are manipulated online. My goal is to help others recognize the warning signs, protect themselves, and understand the emotional side of cybersecurity.
A few possible topics your listeners might find helpful:
Navigating grief in the digital world — and how scammers exploit it
What people over 50 need to know about online safety
Why apps that seem harmless often aren’t
How unplugging became part of my healing process
What it’s like to be targeted repeatedly — and what I’ve learned from it
If this feels like a fit for your show, I’d be honored to share my story and help your audience stay safer online — not through fear, but through awareness and practical tools.
Thanks again for considering it.
Warmly,
Fred Simpson (Jameson Lyon)
