Why You Should Attend...

With $55 billion lost in scams and an expected growth rate of 40%, online fraud is now the most reported type of crime in most countries. With a chance of getting caught of less than 0.05% scams have become a safe and very lucrative business. We’ll be discussing the latest facts, figures, and forecasts in online scams, and more importantly, how we can fight them more effectively and efficiently.
