We continue our series of podcasts focused on fraud. In this podcast we will be looking at fraud intensification. In 2022 the National Economic Crime Centre (NECC) with assistance from the City of London Police, implemented a period of intensification of activity across law enforcement. There were a number of objectives of this intensification: to increase public confidence that law enforcement is committed to tackling fraud offending in the UK; to act as a deterrent through the promoting of successful initiatives to arrest or interview under caution suspects of fraud; to seize the proceeds of fraud and repatriate money to victims; and to increase confidence across government in law enforcements commitment to tackling fraud. To explain this work further, we hear from Oliver Little, the Deputy Head of Operations in the NECC on what is ‘intensification’ in this context and how does it apply to work aimed at combatting fraud. This is the second podcast of a special series of UKFIU podcasts focused on fraud. 00:00 Introduction 01:41 Explaining fraud intensification 02:55 How much victims lose annually as a result of this criminality 04:19 Who are the partners in this intensifications work and how exactly do you all work together 05:43 What the intensification of fraud activity actually entails and what was the outcome of this intensification period 07:49 How has the anti-fraud message been delivered to the general public 09:24 Intensification work planned for 2023 11:22 Conclusion…
Fraud Communications Fraud accounts for over 40% of all crime and recent statistics have shown that 1 in 15 people are a victim of fraud. To facilitate a coordinated response to tackling this, a framework has been developed by key partners, based on insight from across various sectors, to create a streamlined, comprehensive approach. It is hoped that by having a consistent and comprehensive response to fraud, the public will be empowered to protect themselves and to act appropriately if they are targeted. To explain what this all means, we speak with Jessica Kenny, a Strategic Engagement Manager in the National Crime Agency. This is the first of a special series of UKFIU podcasts focused on fraud. 00:00 Introduction 01:29 Explaining the fraud communications toolkit 04:40 Core behaviours 08:01 The need for consistent fraud messaging 09:34 Methods of communication 12:46 Who is the toolkit aimed at? 13:50 Promoting behavioural change 16: 50 Conclusion…
As the number of choices available to banking customers in the UK has grown to include non-traditional platforms, the pool of institutions that regularly report SARs has expanded and diversified. Terms such as ‘challenger bank’, ‘digital bank’, ‘FinTech’, ‘e-wallet’, ‘e-money’ and ‘cryptocurrency exchange’ are now commonplace within the SARs regime and the terminology used to discuss these reporters can be crucial to understanding the different services that they offer. In this podcast, we chat with Mike Venn, the Group Head of Risk and Compliance with Modulr to try and get a better understanding of this area. 00:00 Introduction 01:23 Modulr introduction 03:21 Emerging, mobile-based firms 05:44 Clarification of services offered 07:11 Know Your Customer (KYC) 09:45 Identifying suspicious activity 12:05 Interaction with the UKFIU 14:03 Conclusion Resources mentioned in this podcast UKFIU pages on the NCA website: https://nationalcrimeagency.gov.uk/what-we-do/crime-threats/money-laundering-and-illicit-finance/suspicious-activity-reports https://nationalcrimeagency.gov.uk/what-we-do/crime-threats/money-laundering-and-illicit-finance/ukfiu SARs In Action magazine issue 18: https://nationalcrimeagency.gov.uk/who-we-are/publications/625-sars-in-action-december-2022/file…

In this edition we examine virtual assets – what they are, how they work, complexities faced by law enforcement and the role SARs and reporters can play. We hear from the NECC, the National Police Chiefs’ Council cybercrime programme and the reporting sector, and examine the impact of the fifth money laundering directive regulations on SARs regime stakeholders.

Did you know that SARs are a valuable source of financial information for safeguarding potentially vulnerable members of society? Or that the UKFIU identifies and fast-tracks such SARs to police forces who will, in many cases, arrange visits by local officers to offer advice to prevent fraud or further losses? In this podcast we speak to reporters and law enforcement to learn the value of such fast-tracking and hear the measures they’re taking to help safeguard communities to prevent fraud.
