UK Finance
Annual Fraud Report 2025
(May ’25)
UK Finance publishes both the value of fraud losses and the number of cases. The data is reported to us by our members which include financial providers, credit, debit and charge card issuers, and card payment acquirers.
Each incident of fraud does not equal one person being defrauded, but instead refers to the number of cards or accounts defrauded. For example, if a fraud was carried out on two cards, but they both belonged to the same person, this would represent two instances of fraud, not one.
