This workshop focused on how leading organisations are building scam prevention directly into the design of digital products, payment systems, and telecom networks.

Niamh Lewis of G2 Risk Solutions explained how scam operators use transaction laundering to disguise scam payments behind legitimate-looking websites. She outlined how G2 maps scam networks and helps financial institutions cut off processing services for bad actors.
Eric Goautier from Orange closed the session by highlighting telco efforts to address scam threats from the infrastructure up—via open standards, SIM card security, legacy protocol hardening, and network monitoring. He called for more cross-industry data sharing and consumer education at every contact point.
