Current trends in fraud and counterfraud: Is government as prepared as it can be?
[CSW WEBINAR] Current trends in fraud and counterfraud: Is government as prepared as it can be? Delivered in partnership with SAS, leading experts from government and industry will explore the latest trends shaping fraud and counter-fraud.
Fraud is now the most common crime affecting individuals in England and Wales. According to the National Crime Agency, it accounts for 41% of all offences. And the government has not been idle - between April 2024 and April 2025, government efforts stopped more than £480 million in fraudulent activity. Nevertheless, as the treasury looks to recover revenue across the system, tackling fraud efficiently and proactively has never been more important.
In this Civil Service World webinar, delivered in partnership with SAS, leading experts from government and industry will explore the latest trends shaping fraud and counter-fraud, including:
- Rising organised criminal activity on tax, benefits, and procurement systems
- Rapid growth in AI assisted identity fraud, impersonations, and deepfake scams
- Exploitation of legacy systems
- Vulnerabilities in grants, emergency schemes and procurement
- Increasing focus on prevention, data sharing and building counter-fraud capabilities
