Alex Bacsa is the founder and editor of Beat the Scam, an independent UK consumer-protection publication covering scams, fraud, and the plain-English verification checks readers need before they send money, share credentials, or install software they didn't ask for. He runs Beat the Scam from the UK as an outside operator — not a journalist, lawyer, regulator, or banker — paying close attention to the patterns that keep costing UK households tens of millions a year and translating them into checks anyone can run in under sixty seconds. Coverage relies on AI tooling for first drafts, with every recommendation verified against current public guidance from Action Fraud, the FCA, the NCSC, and Citizens Advice before it ships.
