Common types of fraud

Fraud, or deception, is intentional deception intended to obtain unfair or illegal gain, or to deprive the victim of a legal right. The definition of fraud covers actions by a person who, through deception, induces another person to dispose of his or her own or another person's assets, thereby causing financial loss to the perpetrator or a third party. Fraud may violate civil law (for example, a fraud victim can sue the fraud perpetrator to avoid the fraud or to obtain monetary compensation) or criminal law (for example, the fraud perpetrator may be prosecuted by a government authority or prosecuted and imprisoned depending on the case).

The types of fraud are often caused by the following reasons:

Scammers often use the name of "dating and romance" to lure victims into participating in online gambling, investment and other activities, or directly ask for money transfers under various pretexts, causing the scammers to disappear after all their money is taken away.

Scammers use various channels such as online social tools, text messages, and web pages to publish information promoting investments such as stocks, foreign exchange, futures, and virtual currencies, claiming to have inside information and investment channels in order to recruit targets, find victim groups, and establish connections.

A classic example of a forex scam is a Ponzi scheme, a fraudulent investment scheme that lures investors with promises of sky-high returns and minimal risk. Fraudsters hype up lucrative business opportunities that, in reality, do not exist. However, early investors do see returns initially, as the Ponzi scheme operator pays early investors with the funds raised from later investors. Simply put, it's like robbing Peter to pay Paul - a fraudulent shell game.
