Judit Albers - Working Group Lead

The 2022 GLF Fraud Report marks a continuation of the industry wide efforts to fight fraudulent traffic. As fraud continues to evolve each year, industry members are faced with a constantly changing environment which requires talent, dedication and most importantly collaboration within the industry.

This year is the fifth consecutive year in which the GLF has surveyed members for insights and trends on how fraudulent activity has affected their operations. For the first time ever, the GLF has also gained insight on messaging fraud, its effects on carriers and how fraud teams leveraging their knowledge on voice fraud to fight back. This has helped build a truly unique perspective on how carriers are affected by fraud throughout their entire product line. I would like to acknowledge the 35 fraud survey responses from GLF members and thank MEF for their insights on messaging fraud. MEF’s actions and initiatives are a benchmark in the fight against messaging fraud
