“Fraud is now arguably the world’s most prevalent crime type. With the advent of new technologies, fraudulent activity too has evolved. Criminal actors and organisations are utilising the new digital landscape – including deep-fake technologies – to commit new types of fraud, to spread misinformation and to commit existing crimes in ever more harmful ways. Fraud is now arguably the world’s most prevalent crime type. With the advent of new technologies, fraudulent activity too has evolved. Criminal actors and organisations are utilising the new digital landscape – including deep-fake technologies – to commit new types of fraud, to spread misinformation and to commit existing crimes in ever more harmful ways.
 Election fraud, spear phishing, spoofed websites, DDoS attacks, data theft, impersonation scams – the list of tech-enabled fraud is varied and constantly changing. The use of AI, and other approaches, to address crimes including fraud is also evolving.

What are the key challenges? How are those challenges being addressed?

This conference will look at current problems, responses, as well as anticipate future crimes and their mitigation. The event will cover a broad range of crimes, technologies, disciplines, and responses.

The conference will bring together leading practitioners, policy-makers, technologists and academics.

The full day programme includes lunch and ends with an evening drinks reception.
