Barclays are running what promises to be a very insightful webinar exploring Financial Crime in Education: Emerging Risks and Practical Protection, on Thursday 22 October 2026 from 11:00 to 12:00. The webinar will cover practical insights into how criminals target students and education institutions, including the latest money mule recruitment tactics and real-life case studies. Tony Sales, Danielle Karanicholas and Mariam Sisse from We Fight Fraud will be joining Barclays to introduce the next phase of The Crooks Project, building on the success of Crooks on Campus and the OLAF project.
Members can sign up to attend here.

We also wanted to remind members of the range of BUFDG resources related to counter-fraud, including our e-learning courses covering an Intro to Counter-Fraud and ECCTA – Failure to Prevent Fraud, amongst many other relevant topics.
