Assessing the Correlates of Online Fraud Offending Among Juveniles
Research exploring online fraud has largely focused on victim characteristics, limiting our knowledge of the factors influencing individuals’ risk of engaging in fraud offenses.

To address this gap in the literature, this study explored the relationship between self-control, opport…
Assessing the Correlates of Cryptofraud Victimization Reporting
Media discourses surrounding ‘non-ideal’ victims
Data breaches are an increasingly common event across businesses globally. Many companies have been subject to large-scale breaches. Consequently, the exposure of 37 million customers of the Ashley Madison website is not an extraordinary event in and of itself.

No laughing matter
There is a strong sense of negativity associated with online fraud victimization. Despite an increasing awareness, understanding about the reality of victimization experiences is not apparent. Rather, victims of online fraud are constructed as greedy and gullible and there is an overwhelming sense of blame and responsibility levelled at them for the actions that led to their losses. This belief transcends both non-victims and victims. The existen…
