Crypto Scam Moderation and Advanced Fraud Detection

Hosted by TSPA and Spirit AI

With the explosion in popularity of cryptocurrencies and related blockchain technologies like non-fungible tokens (NFTs) and decentralized autonomous organizations (DAOs), there has been a huge uptick in associated scams. In this webinar, Spirit AI will provide an overview of how to spot this type of fraud and how to tell the difference between legitimate and misleading conversations. The Spirit AI team will demonstrate how they approach discovery of these behaviors on digital platforms by analzying a variety of message types, ranging from a few words to conversations spanning months. Their human-in-the-loop approach towards developing AI allows small operators to use their fraud detection techniques manually while also providing a platform for creating best-in-class automated systems for fraud detection at scale. Edward Minnett and Dr. Peter Passaro will present.
