JAKARTA - A slick step in preventing crypto scamming or fraud has begun to be carried out by Binance as the world's largest crypto exchange platform based on daily trading volume. Binance has partnered with the Macau Justice Police. This collaboration is aimed at tackling cases of increasing online fraud, particularly those related to crypto. Not only against fraud, this is also intended to protect users from a variety of increasingly sophisticated modes of fraud.

In its announcement via an official blog, Binance stated that they and the Macau Police will launch an anti-fraud campaign. The campaign aims to raise user awareness of increasingly complex online fraud techniques. In addition, the campaign is also expected to increase user vigilance in dealing with the growing risk of fraud.

As part of this initiative, Binance will implement an anti-fraud warning into their system. The warning will be aimed specifically at users in Macau and will be active when users withdraw funds. In addition, Binance will also provide practical tips and provide local law enforcement contact information, to help users be more careful before making transaction decisions.

The Macau Justice Police also affirmed their commitment to fighting financial crime. In his statement, a spokesman for the Macau Police said that collaboration with parties like Binance is expected to help the public be more vigilant and responsive to potential risks that may be faced in everyday life.

This collaboration is part of Binance's global efforts to fight crypto crimes. Previously, Binance had collaborated with a number of law enforcement agencies in various countries and has even played a role in training officers in Macau regarding crypto investigations. Binance stressed that education and cooperation with law enforcement officials are their main strategy in protecting users.

Binance's experience in various jurisdictions makes them confident that this collaboration with the Macau Police will work. One example of their success was last May, when the Binance Financial Crimes Compliance (FCC) team collaborated with Taiwanese authorities to uncover a US$6.2 million (Rp99.2 billion) money laundering scheme that uses virtual assets.

With this effort, Binance is optimistic that cooperation with the authorities in Macau will further increase user awareness and prevent crime and protect user assets effectively.
