@simantadebroy
I investigate financial crime, mitigate fraud, and strengthen payments compliance.
What I'm looking for

I've worked across KYC, CDD, EDD, transaction monitoring, acquiring fraud, account takeover, APP scams, money mule activity, sanctions and PEP screening. I assess complex alerts, escalate red flags, support victim restitution and asset recovery, and improve workflows while handling sensitive data in line with UK regulations and GDPR.
Previously, I supported eBay Managed Payments at TTEC and completed web research, moderation, and transcription work at Appen. My Political Science background brings a research-focused lens to high-stakes financial crime decisions.
