During the International Women's Day empowerment event, Jonathan Crompton, a partner and head of Cyber Response in Asia-RPC Law Firm as well as a director at Justice Without Borders, gave a talk about cyber scams in Hong Kong. He discussed how these scams affect not only individuals but also many organisations.

He shared stories from scam victims, illustrating the emotional and financial harm they experience. Jonathan covered various types of scams, including deepfakes, phishing, romance scams, and investment fraud, among others.

He emphasised that many victims often blame themselves for falling for scams but reminded everyone that it is not the victims' fault. To protect ourselves, he urged everyone to stay vigilant and know what to look out for.

His key advice was, “When in doubt, ask!” Report immediately if you have fallen into a scam. Jonathan also introduced the Scameter app, which helps people identify and report scams. To learn more about staying cyber safe and making smart choices with money, download Jonathan’s presentation!
