Books by Geoff White:
Geoff’s latest book, Rinsed, explores how emerging technologies are transforming the global money laundering industry. The book was praised as “riveting” by The Financial Times and reveals how digital tools, cryptocurrencies and global networks are enabling criminal enterprises to operate at unprecedented scale.
His previous book, The Lazarus Heist, grew out of the hit BBC podcast series of the same name, which Geoff co-hosted. The podcast immediately reached #1 on the UK Apple Podcast charts and ranked in the Top 10 in the United States, telling the extraordinary story of the world’s most audacious cyber-bank robbery attempts.
Geoff’s first book, Crime Dot Com, was selected as one of Wired magazine’s “Most Fascinating Books of 2020.” The book examines how technology has revolutionised organised crime, from online fraud networks to global cybercriminal operations.
