The global network to fight scams

It takes a network
to beat a network

Global Anti-Scam Alliance unites forces worldwide to stop online scams before they cause harm. By turning collaboration into action, we protect people everywhere from the financial and emotional impact of fraud.

Through research, intelligence sharing, and partnerships across sectors, we work with governments, industry, and consumer organisations to strengthen prevention, support victims, and disrupt the networks behind online fraud.

Our Global Network

Global Anti-Scam Alliance (GASA) operates in a world where scams know no borders. Cybercriminals act globally, exploiting gaps between countries, systems, and regulations. To effectively protect consumers, the fight against scams must therefore combine strong international collaboration with coordinated action at a regional and national level.
