What you need to know about APP fraud
Coercive impersonation fraud
APP fraud is when criminals coerce consumers or businesses into making fraudulent payments by impersonating trusted individuals. Criminals now target through a wide variety of scams from impersonating bank staff, romance scams and CEO scams, through to conveyancing scams.
The world's leading fraud threat
Authorised Push Payment or APP fraud represents 75% of all digital banking fraud, with losses expected to reach $6.8 billion dollars by 2027. In the UK regulators have taken decisive action with Mandatory Reimbursement regulation.
The effect of Mandatory Reimbursement on banks
The UK's Payment Systems Regulator has now mandated banks and PSP's to reimburse the victims of APP fraud within five working days as of October 7th 2024. This regulatory shock is especially damaging to tier-2 challenger banks and fintechs that run on leaner resources.
Spot scammers calling your customers
Telephone-based APP scams account for 43% of the total value of APP fraud cases.
Scam Signal is the first collaboration between the UK banking and telecommunications sector dedicated to addressing Authorised Push Payment fraud.
Industry Collaboration
Emerging from a need for financial services to better authenticate customers and assure the integrity of mobile devices JT were the first to deploy mobile intelligence services to banks. We're delighted with our collaboration with the UK's financial services sector, mobile network operators and as a channel partner of the GSMA's Open Gateway initiative in bringing Scam Signal to the market.Mobile Intelligence provides an incredible opportunity for banks to add effective mechanisms into their work-flows to assess the levels of risk associated with high value transactions so that proactive measures can be taken to protect consumers from fraud.
“We are seeing record cases of APP fraud in the UK. As advancements such as biometrics has disrupted other avenues for criminal’s they’ve turned to elaborate impersonation scams to circumvent traditional cyber security efforts. This has seen a rapid increase in fraudsters impersonating banks, contacting account holders and coercing them to transfer money to them via fraudulent Authorised Push Payments. Traditionally this has been very difficult to spot, up until now. Scam Signal provides the opportunity to red-flag suspicious behaviour and enable banks to proactively prevent this kind of fraud from happening.
With mandatory reimbursement having come into effect, smaller banks and fintechs risk being inundated by reimbursement claims if they cannot get to grips with the increasing levels of fraud that we’re now experiencing.”
