[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Hyo-jin] The Financial Services Commission and the Financial Supervisory Service announced on the 25th that they will operate a 'Cyber Voice Phishing (Telephone Financial Fraud) Prevention Experience Center' at 'Korea Fintech Week 2020,' which begins online on the 28th.


At the experience center, visitors can indirectly experience voice phishing (the voice of the scammer) and response case audio (smart response methods). Procedures for victim compensation, such as refunding damages and payment suspension systems, will be introduced.


Additionally, various voice phishing and financial fraud message prevention applications (apps) and related technologies available for financial consumers will be exhibited.


A 'Common Sense Quiz Event' to raise awareness and caution about voice phishing will also be held.


The experience center will be established as a subsidiary section on the official event website (www.fintechweek.or.kr/2020).



The Financial Services Commission and others originally planned to hold the event offline at Dongdaemun DDP in Seoul from the 28th to the 30th, but it will be replaced with an online event to prevent the spread of the novel coronavirus infection (COVID-19).
