Date of Event:  26–27 March 2025

Event: Global Anti-Scam Summit London 2025

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

Edward Cunningham from Google presented Android’s latest safety features aimed at stopping scams that exploit screen-sharing and call-based manipulation. He walked through user interface changes, call-based restrictions, and notification blocking, all aimed at preventing fraud before it starts.

Melene Morsing of Sydbank shared Denmark’s layered response to rising investment fraud. From limiting online banking transfers to introducing a free citizen alert app and national biometric login systems, she detailed how cross-sector collaboration is driving results.

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.
