We welcome China’s proposal to establish an international anti-fraud alliance, calling it a vital step to strengthen global cooperation against telecommunication and online fraud.
The initiative, announced at the 2025 Global Public Security Cooperation Forum in Lianyungang, seeks to unite countries in sharing intelligence, expanding training for law enforcement, and coordinating responses to sophisticated cross-border fraud schemes. Chinese authorities point to recent joint operations with Spain, the UAE, and Southeast Asian partners leading to the repatriation of about 68,000 suspects as proof that coordinated action works when jurisdictions align on prevention and prosecution.
Our CEO said in a new communique : “In our connected world, fraud knows no borders. By pooling resources, sharing intelligence, and harmonizing standards, this alliance can deliver powerful deterrence and significantly strengthen Africa’s ability to protect citizens.”
With Africa’s rapid growth in mobile adoption and digital finance, COMRiC stressed that deeper cooperation is essential to secure digital trust and inclusion. The organisation has committed to offering its expertise to the alliance and urged governments, regulators, and industry players to act quickly to move from proposal to implementation
