Charlene Chen on Scams (Countermeasures) and Other Matters Bill
A new anti-scam Bill provides the legal tools needed to trace and disrupt scam networks. But whether people are truly protected, and money saved, depends on three questions of implementation, said MP Charlene Chen. Can scams be detected early enough, with scattered warning signals being turned into an actionable picture? After detection, can the whole network be disrupted, rather than merely removing replaceable accounts? Finally, how will accuracy and effectiveness be evaluated, and any wrongful impact on legitimate users be quickly corrected? Dr Chen spoke in parliament on Wednesday (Sep 9).
