Online scams have become a growing global concern with the increasing use of the internet and digital technologies. Online scams are fraudulent activities that deceive individuals, businesses, or organizations, resulting in financial losses. These scams are becoming more sophisticated, and scammers are increasingly using new and complex tactics to carry out their fraudulent activities.
One of the primary challenges in addressing online scams is the lack of awareness and understanding among the general public on the dangers of online scams. Another challenge is the global nature of online scams. Scammers can operate from anywhere in the world, and they often use advanced technologies and methods to cover their tracks, making it difficult to track and prosecute them. Therefore, the prevalence of online scams requires the collective efforts of all stakeholders, including governments, industry, and civil society organizations.
In this context, APT Web Dialogue on Online Scams will address the following topics by inviting various eminent speakers:
-Overview of Online Scams including its impact;
-Prevention and mitigation of Online Scams; and
-International Cooperation against Online Scams
