The Government Pension Fund, or GPF, has signed a memorandum of understanding with the Deposit Protection Agency, Gogolook (Thailand) Company Limited, known as Whoscall, and National ITMX Company Limited, known as NITMX, to strengthen awareness of fraud and digital crime among GPF members and the general public. Mr. Sornphon Tulyasathien, Secretary-General of the GPF Board, said the organisation manages retirement savings for more than 1.2 million members, and that this collaboration is part of the Retirement Academy project. Under the partnership, Whoscall is providing 1.5 million Whoscall Premium Basic licences to GPF members and will jointly develop an e-learning course with its partners. Mr. Sornphon noted that in 2026, about 16,000 GPF members will retire, with average savings of 1.5 million baht per person. Mrs. Piyaporn Phoklin, Deputy Director and Acting Director of the Deposit Protection Agency, disclosed that from mid-2024 to the present, there have been 270 complaints from people deceived by scammers posing as the agency, with elderly victims accounting for 30 to 40 percent, and 24 victims who actually lost money, with losses ranging from a few hundred baht up to 400,000 baht. Mr. Manwoo Joo, Chief Executive Officer of Gogolook (Thailand) Company Limited, said a single scam phone number can make more than 800,000 calls. Mr. Chatchai Dusadeenod, Managing Director of National ITMX Company Limited, said this collaboration will help broaden the fight against digital crime and reduce the number of victims.
