Voice phishing incidents, losses fall for fourth straight month
South Korea said voice phishing crimes fell for four consecutive months after a government-wide crackdown launched last year. Incidents declined 25.0 percent to 6,108 and losses dropped 22.4 percent to 350.8 billion won from a year earlier. The government warned scams could spread further across social media and messaging services. It plans tighter cooperation with platforms, enhanced fraud detection systems and expanded international coordination.
