Over the last few years, people in the U.K. have been targeted by increasingly sophisticated scammers on and offline. According to UK Finance, in 2020, total fraud loss was £1.26 billion

At Google, thousands of people work around the clock to deliver a safe experience for users, creators, publishers and advertisers. Teams use a mix of technology, including sophisticated machine learning, and human review to enforce Google’s policies. This combination of technology and talent means policy violations can be spotted and action can be taken to remove bad ads.

@ilias this is a good and important topic for us to work on.  Since fraud is a subtopic under the Industry “Financial Services” umbrella, maybe it makes sense to structure this under industry “Fin Svc”.  We are also asking the members to let us know how they feel about drilling down in topics by industry and this is a good example of a session we could do as part of an entire Fin Svcs series of programming.

Community > let the C2C team know, what are your thoughts on this topic as well generally around the industry coverage of Fin Svcs, one of the key Google Cloud industries?

thx!
