Re-Spin: Can fincrime professionals fight romance fraud?

To mark Valentine's Day and the season of romance, we're re-spinning an incredibly important episode.


More than £106m was lost to romance fraud in the UK in 2025, a 9% increase on the year before. Deepfake technology is also making these scams far more sophisticated than before.


Our expert host, Marit Rødevand, is joined by Anna Rowe, Co-Founder of LoveSaid, and Simon Miller, Director of Policy and Communications at Stop Scams UK, to ask: Can fincrime professionals fight romance fraud?


The panel discuss: the biggest challenges in tackling romance fraud, the solutions needed from the compliance industry, and the importance of post-fraud support for victims.


[Originally broadcast in March 2024]


Producer: Matthew Dunne-Miles

Engineers: Dominic Delargy, Nicholas Thon
