Join the fight: encourage scam reporting
Scam reports are critical in helping us spot trends, disrupt scams and alert the community. Help us fight back against scammers by encouraging Australians to report scams.
The National Anti-Scam Centre is calling on businesses to join the fight against increasingly sophisticated scams by partnering and sharing data after Australians reported about $119 million in scam-related losses in the first four months of 2025.
The National Anti-Scam Centre’s Job Scam Fusion Cell removed more than 29,000 scam social media accounts and 1850 fake job advertisements in a crackdown on employment scams targeting vulnerable Australians looking to ease cost of living pressures.
The National Anti-Scam Centre has seen a significant rise in financial criminals targeting Australians in phishing scams that scare people to believe that their bank accounts or cryptocurrency wallets have been hacked or compromised.
We’re on a mission to make Australia a harder target for scammers
The National Anti-Scam Centre, run by the ACCC, brings together experts from government, law enforcement and the private sector to disrupt scams before they reach consumers. We analyse and act on trends from shared data and raise consumer awareness about how to spot and avoid scams.
