What can the U.S. teach the world about disrupting scams at scale

The U.S. is on the front line of the global scams challenge.
Americans lost an estimated $68 billion to scams in 2025 alone. That scale matters because the tactics are not staying within borders.

• Robocall blocking and labelling are helping people spot suspicious calls.
• Branded calling is giving trusted organisations a clearer way to show who they are.
• And stronger action on spoofing is making it harder for criminals to impersonate the services people rely on.
• But the bigger point is simple: scams are now a shared digital ecosystem problem.
• No single country, company or sector can solve this alone.
