“I’ve spent my career developing global industry frameworks to prevent malicious cyberattacks and fraud; Scamnetic is a necessary safeguard to protect our loved ones”

Scamnetic provides the only holistic scam-detection solution in the market, combating every current scam. Scamnetic includes:

• Scan&Score™ automatically scans email and text messages, along with QR codes, links, physical mail and images to understand the risk from any incoming communication.
• IDeveryone™ verifies the identity of any counterparty using advanced but easy-to-use technology, enabling users to know exactly with whom they interact whether by video, audio or text. It combats d***** scams, Facebook marketing scams, crypto scams, land investment scams and more.
• Scam intervention™: Scamnetic experts work tirelessly to restore assets and peace of mind for scam victims. Scamnetic offers 24/7 support, helping consumers who may be in the throes of a scam, guiding victims to recovery and helping them reclaim control over their digital life.

In addition to the anguish that scam victims experience, the financial cost of scams is staggering. For example:

• Consumers reported losing more than $10 billion to fraud in 2023, according to the U.S. Federal Trade Commission.
• In 2023, fraud scams and bank fraud schemes totaled $485.6 billion in projected losses globally, according to the Nasdaq 2024 Global Financial Crime Report.
• There was a 22% year-over-year growth in U.S. consumer scam losses in 2023, according to the Federal Bureau of Investigation Internet Crime Report 2023.

“Consumers worldwide are experiencing record losses, with an alarming year-over-year increase. Scammers are leveraging artificial intelligence to carry out sophisticated criminal activities that evade human detection. The industry has responded with educational efforts, warning customers to ‘watch out for this’ or ‘we will never ask you for that,’ and cautioning against clicking suspicious links. Unfortunately, these measures are insufficient. While bad actors employ advanced AI tactics, the good actors rely on basic education. It’s a David versus Goliath battle, and the time to fight back has arrived,” said Scamnetic CEO Al Pascual.

“Scamnetic is at the forefront of using artificial intelligence to empower consumers and businesses to detect and prevent scams effectively. Our mission is to safeguard digital interactions worldwide, ensuring peace of mind in an era of increasing digital fraud. Globally, businesses and consumers are so far behind the bad actors regarding protection, threat detection and the ability to combat these crimes quickly. With the release of our product, we are now on a level playing field with scammers; as they develop new tactics, so will we,” said Scamnetic co-founder John Evans.
