TL;DR

• Payward supported Operation Atlantic, a coordinated international law enforcement effort led by the UK’s National Crime Agency and co-led with the U.S. Secret Service, Ontario Provincial Police, and Ontario Securities Commission to disrupt cryptocurrency fraud and approval phishing scams, resulting in the identification of more than $45 million in suspected criminal proceeds and over 20,000 potential victims across multiple jurisdictions.

• As an industry partner in active law enforcement operations, Payward identified and notified potentially impacted clients, responded to law enforcement data requests, and deployed team members on-site at NCA London headquarters, demonstrating how crypto exchanges can serve as operational partners in disrupting financial crime in real time.

• Approval phishing (where victims unknowingly grant malicious actors access to their crypto wallets) represents a fast-moving, cross-border threat; Payward’s participation in operations like Atlantic reflects its commitment to crypto ecosystem integrity, client protection, and cooperative engagement with global regulators and law enforcement.
