Phone upgrade scams are contributing to more than £200 million in annual mobile phone fraud losses across the UK. Criminals impersonate trusted mobile operators, obtain customers’ security details and use them to order high-value devices.

Vodafone UK is tackling this threat by embedding the Scam Signal API into its phone upgrade journey. When suspicious activity is detected, Vodafone can reject the device order and contact the customer directly, helping to stop fraud before the phone reaches the scammer.
