Sumsub’s internal research reveals that fraud ring crime approximately victimised one in every 100 users of a digital platform or service in 2023. APAC (2.6%) outplaces Americas and Europe (0.3%) and Africa (0.9%) in the prominence of fraud networks.
“Fraud networks, however small they may seem right now, will gain prominence, just like AI-powered deepfakes. The damage of fraud rings is much more significant than individual scammers. Businesses must prepare for this and protect their platforms in advance,” said Pavel Goldman-Kalaydin, head of AI/ML at Sumsub.
