About us
What is the National Trading Standards eCrime Team? As part of a wider strategy to protect consumers and tackle rising e-crime, the Government has set up the National Trading Standards eCrime Centre (NTSeCT). The NTSeCT is funded by the Department of Business, Innovation & Skills (BIS) and the National Trading Standards Board (NTSB). What do we do? The National Trading Standard e-Crime Team (NTSeCT) is a new national government team aimed at protecting consumers and businesses in England and Wales from internet crime and online fraud. We not only protect consumers and businesses but we also help local and regional trading standards officers stay ahead of online fraudsters and rogue traders and help them deal more efficiently with rising levels of online scams and rip-offs. For the first time teams of expert intelligence specialists, forensic analysts, and internet investigators have come together to enforce e-crime. They can provide local authority trading standard officers with operational and technological support to meet the demands of a constantly shifting online environment.
