Introduction

Welcome to the National Trading Standards (NTS) Scams Team's interactive training for staff and organisations within the telecoms sector including service providers, communication providers, mobile network operators, and virtual network operators.

        • Gain a better understanding of the scale and impact of fraud.
        • Learn to identify scams that may affect both our organisation and customers.
        • Understand how to stop these scams from impacting customers and recognise the ways in which victims can be affected.
        • Develop practical techniques to support customers who have become scam victims, including using appropriate and effective language.
