Fraud Intelligence

Leading UK banking, telecoms and tech companies have joined forces in a new intelligence-sharing scheme under established industry anti-fraud initiative 'Stop Scams UK'.

Britain's corporate registry, Companies House, has only managed to collect around 2% of fines meted out for falsifying entries, such as fake names or businesses and their owners, since October 2024.

The UK has secured its first ever Interpol Silver Notice, a global order to seize the proceeds of crime. Its target is tracing and recovering UK£8.5 million (US$10.3 million) in criminal assets of convicted fraudster, Anopkumar Maudhoo.
