Google and Meta Ally with India to Fortify Defenses Against Crypto Scams

India has intensified its crackdown on cryptocurrency scams by collaborating with giants like Google and Meta. The Indian Ministry of Home Affairs reports comprehensive measures to mitigate 'pig butchering' scams, which primarily exploit vulnerable social groups. These scams often begin on platforms using Google's ad services and Meta’s sponsored ads, where scammers pose as financial experts to deceive victims. To combat these fraudulent activities, protocols have been established to quickly remove deceptive content from these platforms. The Indian Cyber Crime Coordination Centre has been pivotal in these efforts, notably enhancing the systems like Google Pay to intercept suspicious transactions effectively. This proactive stance, combined with national training programs and global anti-financial crime collaborations, reflects India’s commitment to ensuring a safer cryptocurrency environment and reducing crime rates substantially.
