It’s encouraging to see Standard Bank supporting NAMPOL with specialised training to tackle digital fraud. As more Namibians turn to online banking, mobile payments and e-commerce, the skills needed to investigate these crimes become even more important.
Fraud today involves phishing, and identity theft. Training officers to analyse transactions and preserve electronic evidence helps Namibia stay one step ahead of criminals who are constantly evolving.
At Meinert Cybersecurity, we believe awareness starts with people. When employees understand what suspicious activity looks like, they play a big role in preventing fraud long before it becomes an investigation.

Standard Bank trains NAMPOL officers to tackle digital fraud
Standard Bank Namibia has provided specialised training to the Namibian Police Force (NAMPOL) to improve the investigation of digital fraud, as part of its activities for International Fraud Awareness Week 2025.
The bank said the training is aimed at strengthening Namibia’s ability to respond to cyber-enabled crime, which has increased alongside the growth of online banking, mobile payments and e-commerce.
According to Standard Bank, its fraud and compliance experts trained officers on how to investigate phishing, identity theft, account takeovers and card fraud. The training included practical guidance on tracing digital footprints, analysing transaction data and preserving electronic evidence for prosecution.
