The Illegal Financial Activity Eradication Task Force (PASTI Satgas) and the Financial Services Authority (OJK) collaborated to hold a soft launch of the Indonesia Anti-Scam Center/IASC (Financial Transaction Fraud Handling Center) at the OJK Office, Jakarta, Friday, November 22, 2024. The Anti Scam Center can be a coordination forum between OJK, members of the PASTI Task Force and financial services industry players for handling scams that occur in the financial sector quickly and with deterrent effects.

The establishment of the Indonesia Anti-Scam Center was formed as a first step to make it easier for victims to report fraud experienced so that it can be handled quickly and in a coordinated manner. In addition, the establishment of the anti-scam center aims to accelerate coordination between financial service providers in handling fraud reports by delaying transactions and blocking fraud-related accounts. Then identify the parties involved in the fraud, seek to return the remaining victim funds, and take legal action.

At this soft launching phase, 79 banks have joined IASC and will continue to expand to the next phase. Victims can also submit reports of financial sector fraud incidents through the IASC website at the address

http://iasc.ojk.go.id by attaching related data and evidence documents.

He also appealed to the public to always be careful of various modes of fraud and for people who are victims of fraud to immediately report it to the IASC and financial service providers to be followed up.

If the public or victims need further information, they can also contact OJK Consumer Services at 157 or via email: iasc@ojk.go.id Victims can also report fraud to the financial service provider used and then the report will be further coordinated through the IASC.
