What we do
Stop Scams UK is a membership organisation of responsible businesses from across financial services, technology and telecoms. Our purpose is to facilitate cross-sector collaboration between firms in those sectors most affected by scams.
Many businesses find collaboration difficult. Regulation and legal considerations encourage competition within and between the sectors. Privacy and data security considerations can also raise challenges for collaborations across sectors.
Our work programme is shaped, informed and driven by our members – businesses who want to do more and move fast. We provide the resource, leadership, and trusted space for our members to share problems, identify opportunities, overcome blockers, pilot and deliver replicable, scalable projects.
By bringing the right people together and make the right connections, we encourage a holistic system-wide understanding of problems, creating the space for award-winning solutions to emerge and providing the resource for them to be realised.
