The Hague, The Netherlands & London, England – Scams have become one of the fastest-growing and most devastating forms of financial crime, costing victims more than $442 billion globally each year, eroding trust across the digital economy, and funding criminal activities.

Today, The Global Anti-Scam Alliance (GASA)   is proud to announce that Outseer , the leader in all-cause digital fraud prevention, has joined as a Foundation Member, signaling a new chapter in its mission to protect people, businesses, and institutions from all forms of digital deception. 

For over two decades, Outseer (formerly RSA) has safeguarded billions of digital transactions from payment fraud. The company has extended that leadership beyond account takeover and unauthorized fraud into authorized fraud, tackling scams that exploit human psychology as much as technology. Outseer’s AI-based fraud prevention platform, behavioral biometrics, global fraud data network, and evolving array of authenticators enable the most comprehensive and agile approach to defense-in-depth fraud prevention.

“Scams are no longer isolated fraud incidents; they’re global, industrialized and swiftly evolving,” said John Filby, CEO of Outseer . “By joining GASA, we are reinforcing our mission to liberate the world from all-cause fraud. Together with governments, financial institutions, and law enforcement, we’re creating the intelligence and defenses that no single entity can build alone.”

Jorij Abraham, Managing Director of GASA , added: “Outseer’s longstanding specialization in payment fraud prevention brings important expertise to GASA’s work. This new partnership is a statement by a world-leading fraud prevention expert that scams are not simply someone else’s problem, but are truly everyone’s responsibility. It reflects the stark reality that fighting fraud requires a united front.”

As a Foundation Member, Outseer will actively contribute to GASA’s intelligence-sharing programs, global research, and advisory boards, helping to shape best practices and scalable controls that address scams at their source.

Romance scams continue to grow worldwide, exploiting trust, emotional vulnerability, and online relationships to manipulate victims into financial and emotional harm. Timed around Brazil’s Valentine’s Day period, the latest GASA meet-up, Golpes do Amor — Como eles acontecem e como se proteger, explored how these scams operate, why they are so effective, and how individuals can better recognise warning signs before becoming victims.  Hosted by the Brazil Chapter of the Global Anti-Scam Alliance (GASA), the discussion highlighted findings from O Estado dos Golpes no Brasil. According to the report, romance scams have already affected 18 per cent of surveyed Brazilian adults, while 6 per cent of victims reported falling for this type of scam more than once. Beyond financial losses, speakers emphasised the severe emotional consequences victims often experience, including shame, trauma, and loss of trust.  Read the Report – O Estado dos Golpes no Brasil  Speakers: Rose Leonel, Journalist and Founder – ONG Marias da Internet Tanila Savoy, Founder – Associação Nacional de Vítimas da Internet (ANVINT) Lisandréa Salvariego Colabuono, Police Chief and Coordinator – NOAD, Polícia Civil de São Paulo Renata Salvini, Brazil Chapter Director – Global Anti-Scam Alliance  A major focus of the discussion was the manipulation techniques commonly used in romance scams. Speakers explained how scammers frequently create convincing identities, often pretending to be foreigners, military personnel, or individuals living abroad, while avoiding in-person meetings and building emotional dependency over time. Urgency and financial pressure were highlighted as major warning signs, particularly when victims are pushed to act quickly or send money under emotional circumstances.  The webinar also explored the lasting psychological impact of these crimes and reinforced that victims should never be blamed. Rose Leonel shared her personal story of transforming trauma into advocacy after becoming a victim of non-consensual intimate image sharing, an experience that ultimately contributed to the creation of the Rose Leonel Law in Brazil. Speakers stressed the importance of reporting scams, noting that even small details can assist investigations and help prevent future victims.  The conversation reinforced the need for greater public awareness, victim support, and collaboration between civil society, law enforcement, and digital platforms to address emotionally manipulative fraud more effectively. Through initiatives like this meet-up, GASA continues working with experts and organisations worldwide to strengthen scam prevention and support victims of online fraud.  Watch the full discussion below to learn how individuals and organisations can better recognise and respond to romance scams.
