GASA New Year Online Reception, Fighting Scams in 2026 - 15/01/26 - 1:00PM UTC

The Global Anti-Scam Summit America 2025

Online scams are a growing threat across the United States and Canada, costing consumers billions and straining enforcement systems. 70% of adults in the U.S. experienced a scam, according to the State of Scams in the United States of America 2025 Report by GASA. Scams are no longer isolated incidents – they have become a daily reality.

The Global Anti-Scam Summit America 2025, hosted at Amazon HQ2, 525 14th St S, Arlington, VA 22202, USA on the 3rd and 4th of December, will bring together public and private sector leaders from across North America. The Global Anti-Scam Summit (GASS) convenes governments, regulators, law enforcement agencies, financial institutions, consumer protection bodies, and cybersecurity experts to develop joint solutions across borders and sectors.

Over two days, participants will take part in high-impact plenaries, panel discussions, workshops, and lightning talks covering scam typologies, victim support, policy reform, real-time data sharing, and AI-based defences. Special sessions will explore United States leadership, Canadian strategies, and best practices emerging across the Americas – including insights from the newly launched GASA North America Chapter.

Scams are not confined by borders. They are a continental and global crisis that demands a unified response. The Global Anti-Scam Summit (GASS) Americas 2025 is where the Americas come together to take action. Join us to help build the cooperation and coordination needed to protect people and digital economies alike. Only together can we outsmart the scammers.
