Ofcom's fraud risk profile — a citation provenance audit at the verification floor

Section 11 of Ofcom's Register of Risks (16 December 2024), the fraud and financial services profile, audited as a citation provenance object. 15 load-bearing citations were sampled from 140 footnotes; 4 were primary-source verified. Per-citation Admiralty grading surfaces one citation with three structural distortions (qualifier-, scope-, and chain-dropping). The audit also documents a ~25–30% verification floor for AI-augmented audits of regulator documents without institutional access.
