WASHINGTON, DC (SEPTEMBER 7, 2018) – The Alliance for Safe Online Pharmacies (ASOP Global) announced today that merchant risk management firm G2 Web Services has joined as a new member dedicated to combatting illegal online drug sellers.

“Payment transactions for illegal online pharmacies serve as another chokepoint in combatting the proliferation of counterfeit and potentially dangerous drugs sold over the internet,” said Libby Baney, principal at Faegre Baker Daniels Consulting and senior advisor to ASOP Global. “We are encouraged to have G2 Web Services as a new member to join ASOP Global in the fight to protect consumers on the Internet from bad actors that put profits ahead of patients.”

G2 Web Services provides payment risk mitigation solutions in due diligence, compliance and fraud protection for members of the payments value chain. Working with the complexities of changing regulations, card network rules and the rapidly shifting payments landscape, G2 Web Services’ global breadth, depth and experience enables them to identify otherwise unknown risks.

“We share in ASOP Global’s commitment to keeping consumers safe and eliminating illegal pharmaceutical merchants online,” said Dan Frechtling, president of G2 Web Services. “We look forward to collaborating with the organization and their partners to leverage novel technologies to ensure patient safety and reduce access and availability to counterfeit, and potential deadly, drugs sold online.”

G2 Web Services joins dozens of distinguished organizations serving as ASOP Global members and observers, spanning the entire healthcare delivery system and those impacting internet-based commerce. ASOP Global and its partners remain dedicated to educating consumers about the proliferation and dangers of counterfeit medicines – both online and offline – and on ways to stay safe and save money.
