On October 27 at 16:00 CET, DomainCrawler, a global B2B provider of quality domain and backlink data, and Scamadviser, an anti-scam online initiative, will conduct a joint webinar discussing the Global State of Scams and ways to fight them on an individual, business, and country level.

Online scams, like cybercrime in general, are very difficult to combat. The current way hosting companies, SSL certifiers, e-commerce platforms, email houses, registries and registrars offer their infrastructure allows scammers to set up shop very easily, cheaply and most importantly, anonymously. So, it is crucial that individuals, businesses, and state authorities unite forces in this fight. But what exactly can we do and what have we been doing so far?
