Ask Silver

 

Ask Silver creates tools to protect banking customers from scams. Once a bank identifies a suspicious transaction, the customer is requested to upload evidence to Ask Silver to determine if it’s a scam using our proprietary database and AI. We then provide an assessment to the customer and bank.

Fraud Solution Profile

At Ask Silver, we understand scams better than most. A close relative of Alex was scammed out of £150,000, most of their life savings. Ask Silver is an early-stage business, but is taking a human-centred approach to scams, rather than a system-centred approach, because humans are easier to hack than systems.

 

Our approach is consumer first, building tools to protect the human directly enabling banks to better protect their customers from being socially engineered. We have built a Scam Checker, built in WhatsApp. It is FCA-awarded, and have been featured in all the major UK media. You can try it at www.ask-silver.com

 

Ask Silver is currently negotiating with 2 of the biggest 4 UK banks to deploy the Scam Checker at the payment layer and automate intervention and intelligence gathering.
