Our Network — CyberAware UK & GCC
One team, one mission, two regional sites — so the guidance you read is built for the banks, apps, reporting routes and laws where you actually live.
Who we are
CyberAware is a small, independent team of former UK law-enforcement investigators and OSINT researchers. We build free, plain-English resources to help families, schools and communities spot and avoid online scams.
Scams, phishing and dark-web threats affecting UK residents and businesses.
Scams and digital threats affecting Gulf Cooperation Council countries (UAE, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Kuwait, Bahrain, Oman) — in English and Arabic.
Why two websites?
Scam tactics overlap globally, but local context matters — different banks and apps are cloned, different reporting channels exist (Action Fraud vs local police and CERTs), and languages and consumer protections differ. Keeping UK and Gulf advice separate stops confusion and keeps guidance accurate.
What we do
Independence
We are independent of any bank, telecom, government or vendor. We do not sell personal data, and we do not accept paid placement that could influence our advice. Our work is funded through small, clearly disclosed affiliate commissions and voluntary reader support.
