Introduce measures to hold social media platforms to account for tackling scams

Background

I would like the UK government to hold social media platforms accountable for tackling scams on their platforms by requiring them to adopt specific measures.

Additional details

This includes: - require & enforce ID checks for users - require reporting & audits - create an anti-scam taskforce - raise public awareness - fund victim compensation Many people lose money and trust due to social media scams. I think platforms are failing to act - with scammers operating freely - so we need stronger regulation to hold them accountable, enforce security and protect users. I think it will help prevent financial harm, restore trust and show online safety is a national priority.
