In view of the recent surge in cyber and phone fraud cases, our litigation partners Vivian Wong, Kenny Chun, and Ronald To hosted a webinar discussing classic scam cases and funds recovery actions on 3 February 2021 (Wednesday). 

Vivian offered her insight into the common features of the latest email and phone scams with tips to avoid them. Ronald then explained how a victim should respond in order to preserve the defrauded money and the available court reliefs. Building on that, Kenny compared various causes of action for fund recovery actions and discussed the complications brought about by multiple layers of recipients and how different disclosure orders may assist in asset tracing.

The webinar was well-attended by over 100 clients from which we received positive and encouraging feedback. In particular, participants found the presentation insightful and practical, enabling them to understand this complex area of law.
