Inp.polri.go.id - Jakarta. The Financial Services Authority (OJK) and the Indonesian National Police (INP)’s Criminal Investigation Agency have agreed on Wednesday (14/1/2026) to make it easier for the public to report financial scams through the Indonesia Anti-Scam Centre (IASC).
“This cooperation reflects our joint commitment to protect consumers and ensure faster law enforcement responses to financial scams,” OJK’s Executive Head of Consumer Protection Friderica Widyasari Dewi said after the agreement signing amid a surge in online fraud cases nationwide.
Under the scheme, scam victims can file official police reports via IASC, a key requirement to accelerate fund recovery through financial service providers. OJK and the INP’s Criminal Investigation Agency will also synchronize data, case handling, and follow-up investigations.
Authorities noted that scam losses often involve bank transfers, e-wallets, and digital assets. From November 2024 to December 2025, IASC received more than 411,000 reports, with reported losses of Rp 9 trillion and Rp 402.5 billion successfully blocked.
The collaboration aims to strengthen consumer protection, improve public trust, and speed up criminal enforcement against fraud networks.
