This unique volume presents cutting-edge research on the nature and extent of a wide range of scams, cons, frauds, and deceptive activities, including sextortion, the use of ransomware, phishing, identity theft, Ponzi schemes, online shopping fraud, gift card scams, and health care fraud targeting elderly victims. The contributions to this book raise and attempt to answer several intriguing questions: Why have governments in each global region failed to respond more aggressively to these crimes? What can/should the private sector and social media giants be doing? Can the current responses of both governments and the private sector be linked to the public’s ambivalence about how to respond to these forms of offending and victimization? Does a large segment of the public admire individuals who get involved in these activities, in large part due to the positive portrayal of scammers, fraudsters, and con artists in both literature and cinema? Or does the public’s view of the harm caused by these scams and cons vary, based on our view of who is victimized (e.g., individuals or corporations) and/or why they were chosen? Will governments – as they have done in the past – attempt to influence the public’s views by restricting access to books and movies that focus on the latest scams, cons, and frauds taking place on-line and in-person via book banning and other forms of censuring? And finally, should this discussion of the influence of books and cinema on the public’s views of scams, frauds, cons, and deception be broadened to include the government’s ongoing attempts to censure a wide range of books and films that may influence the public’s view of morality—and more recently, the public’s view of our government—due to their content? Timely and thought-provoking, this book will be a key resource for researchers, scholars, and practitioners in criminology and criminal justice, sociology, law, psychology, and social work, while also appealing to interdisciplinary researchers seeking insight into the relationship between positive portrayals of scammers, fraudsters, and con artists in literature and cinema, and the public’s perception of individuals who get involved in these activities. It was originally published as a special issue of Victims & Offenders.

This book features the empirical work of internationally known scholars, providing an in-depth examination of the overlap between online and offline victimization and offending. The vast expanse of the Internet has provided a limitless playground for offenders to prey on those unaware of their predators, or well as those who are intimately familiar with their offenders. However, the Internet does not isolate offenders into mutually exclusive categories. Instead, it has allowed many offenders to use both offline and online platforms to commit crime. It also opened up more opportunity for violation of victims. This volume features two divisions of the American Society of Criminology, the Division of Victimology and Division of Cybercrime, who have joined forces to sponsor a special issue on the overlap between forms of online and offline victimization and offending. International scholars in this book provide a notable spectrum of different forms of this phenomenon, as well as predictors of these behaviors. The Link between Specific Forms of Online and Offline Victimization will be a key resource for academics, researchers, and advanced students of Victimology, Cybercime, Criminology and Criminal Justice. The chapters included in this book were originally published in Victims & Offenders.

Behavioral genetics offers numerous opportunities to bridge gaps in biological research of organizational science and to shed light on the nature versus nurture debate. This study seeks to explain persistent vulnerability to fraud victimization from a genetic perspective. A synthesis of current literatures on cognitive neuroscience, decision making, and fraud victimization suggests that there may potentially be a genetic basis for user susceptibility to fraudulent scams. Using the classic twin design, this study reports estimated heritability of fraud victimzation to be up to 38% by comparing concordance between 144 pairs of monozygotic (MZ) twins and that between 52 pairs of same-sex dyzygotic (DZ) twins on a fraud victimization test. On the other hand, individual differences in responses to a simulated fraudulent "mimicking" scam has a much smaller genetic explanation at 6%, showing that the behavioral response is explained largely by both shared and non-shared environmental influences. Zygosity of the twin pairs serves as the primary independent variable in these behavioral genetics analyses. Implications of the study results are discussed with respect to anti-fraud research as well as managerial practices.

Fraud is the fastest growing criminal activity in the world. Every day people get fraudulent telephone calls, emails and letters. Most of us just ignore them but a large portion of the population are duped and end up as victims of these crimes. The book examines fraud in seven common venues, credit cards, debit cards, telephones, email, Internet, identity and on the street. In each case frauds are described and practical ways to protect yourself are discussed. There are several common characteristics of all frauds and once you learn these you will be better able to recognize a fraud and take the steps necessary to prevent it from happening to you. Anyone can be the victim of fraud. It doesn't matter how old you are, how intelligent you are, or how street smart you are. Many frauds are perpetrated on people without them even knowing. The best we can do is educate ourselves about frauds and how they work so we are not a victim. The book walks you through a comprehensive list of things you should do if you are a victim. Seniors are a large target group for fraudsters who are coming up with new schemes every day to separate them from their money and possessions. Seniors are reluctant to tell anyone when they are scammed because they don't want their family or friends to think that they cannot handle their own financial affairs. If you have a loved one who is a senior this book makes a thoughtful gift and could save them from becoming a victim.
