About this Event

Combating Online Fraud in Northern Ireland

Join us in person for an insightful event all about tackling the rising challenge of online fraud in Northern Ireland. Connect with experts, learn practical tips to protect yourself, and discover the latest trends in cyber scams. Whether you're a professional or just curious, this is your chance to get savvy and stay safe online.

Guiding the morning will be Linda McAuley, former BBC Radio Ulster presenter of On Your Behalf - a familiar voice to many and a champion for consumer protection.

This won’t just be a “sit and listen” event. We’ll be running an interactive breakout session where delegates will work together to generate practical ideas on how Northern Ireland can better prevent, detect and respond to online fraud. Real issues. Real collaboration. Real outcomes.

Supported by the Asset Recovery Community Scheme, the event is free to attend. The event kicks off at 9am with tea/coffee/scones and should finish by 11:30am.

Whether you’re from the private sector, public services, the voluntary and community sector — or simply someone who cares about protecting people and businesses from fraud — this session is for you. Online fraud affects us all, and tackling it takes all of us.

Don’t miss out on this hands-on opportunity to make a real difference!
