One of the big challenges of modern society across the world is to cope with the risks of the wider adoption of the virtual world. Precisely because it is expansive, borderless, and facilitates anonymity in transactions it is attractive to offenders. We have heard from a previous webinar that many criminals are going online; we have heard from them that it is both less risky and more lucrative. There is growing concern that Covid-19 has driven more desperate and angry people to crime, exploiting the weaknesses in systems as more people work from home and organisations are in disarray. This webinar will assess:
The scale of the threats posed by financial criminals
The approaches being adopted and weaknesses being exploited
The routes to better policing of financial criminals
Panellists:
Mick Creedon QPM – Altia-ABM
Nick Downing – Chief Intelligence Officer for Cifas
Susan Frith – Chief Executive Officer at NHSCFA
Prof Michael Levi – Professor of Criminology at Cardiff University
