Amazon, Google and other tech giants pledge action on fraud
Fraud accounts for about two-fifths of all crime in England and Wales. The charter's commitments are "Voluntary" and not all will apply to every company. The companies pledged to implement these changes within six months. The joint fraud taskforce, chaired by Security Minister Tom Tugendhat, would hold the companies to account for delivering the actions, the government said. The new Online Safety Act, which applies to search engines and user-to-user services such as social-media platforms, also requires companies to mitigate the risks of fraud and, for some, prevent fraudulent advertising.
