사기수법과 기망전술의 유형

Abstract

Many fraud cases including Internet fraud, can be classified in terms of Modus Operandi and deceit tactics which is common to all kinds of fraud, thereafter we may find any useful clues for prevention of fraud victimization. The deceit tactics in fraud can be divided roughly into five classes, such as enticement, scare, mystery, good faith and the other emotion tactics. First, It leaves much room for discussion as to whether the fraud victim by enticement tactics is to be blamed for his greed, vanity and so on, to what extent. But those who are victimized by the rest of tactics should not be the target of reproach, otherwise generally wrong preconception would just let the offender use neutralization skills and make victims unwilling to report the crime and feel helpless. It is likely to lead the law enforcement agency who is responsible for fact finding into taking negative attitude to the given case with a distorted point of view. Second, different responses may be done according to each deceit tactic. And lastly, reporting system should be improved so that victims can feel like complaining more easily. Apparently fraudsters are masters at instilling a false sense of fear, shame, and guilt in their victims who is chosen and manipulated carefully. The rates of reporting frauds remains low with ultimate result desirable to perpetrators. A more elaborate intervention in victimizing process and a more effective assist to fraud victims may reduce the risk of becoming a victim of fraud and help victims get their life back on track.
