Mark Zuckerberg's Meta Asked To Foot The Bill Partly In Fraud Cases By UK Fintech: 'These Platforms Share No Responsibility'
"These platforms share no responsibility in reimbursing victims, and so they have no incentive to do anything about it. A commitment to data sharing, albeit needed, simply isn't good enough," he stated.U.K.-based fintech company Revolut has called on Mark Zuckerberg-led Meta Platforms Inc. (NASDAQ:META) to help cover the costs of reimbursing victims of fraud.
總部位於英國的金融科技公司Revolut呼籲由Mark Zuckerberg領導的Meta Platforms Inc.（納斯達克：META）幫助支付欺詐受害者的成本。
What Happened: On Thursday, Woody Malouf, Revolut's head of financial crime, dismissed Meta's initiative to "launch a data-sharing partnership with U.K. banks and financial institutions to prevent fraud," calling it insufficient.
事件經過：週四，Revolut的反欺詐負責人Woody Malouf批評Meta的舉措，稱其「與英國銀行和金融機構合作開展數據共享以防範欺詐」不足以應對。
Malouf argued that tech platforms like Meta bear no responsibility in reimbursing victims, thus lacking incentive to tackle the issue.
Malouf認爲像Meta這樣的科技平台對於賠償受害者沒有責任感，因此缺乏解決問題的動力。
"These platforms share no responsibility in reimbursing victims, and so they have no incentive to do anything about it. A commitment to data sharing, albeit needed, simply isn't good enough," he stated.
他表示：「這些平台對於賠償受害者沒有責任感，因此他們沒有解決問題的動力。儘管數據共享是必要的，但僅靠這一點遠遠不夠。」
According to a new report from Revolut released on the same day, 69% of scams reported by U.K. customers in the first half of this year originated from Meta platforms, including Facebook and Instagram.
根據Revolut當天發佈的最新報告，今年上半年，英國客戶報告的69%欺詐案件源自Meta平台，包括Facebook和Instagram。
This marked an increase from 67% in the second half of last year.
與去年下半年的67%相比，這個比例有所增加。
"We are confident in the steps the UK government is taking to tackle fraud, but what is urgently needed now is for Meta and other social media companies to commit to supporting victims of fraud in the same way financial institutions do. Their silence on this issue says it all," said Malouf.
Malouf說：「我們對英國政府目前採取的打擊欺詐的措施有信心，但更迫切需要的是Meta和其他社交媒體公司承諾像金融機構一樣支持欺詐受害者。他們在這個問題上的沉默說盡一切。」
