Fraud is this country’s most common crime, with scammers targeting individuals ruthlessly and mercilessly.
“Scam techniques have become increasingly slick and sophisticated with the proliferation of AI. Now that fraudsters can generate such realistic deceptive content in minutes, it’s important to arm yourself with the information that you need to protect you and your families”.
Lisa Townsend, Police and Crime Commissioner of Surrey
