What is Fraud?

Fraud is the act of intentionally deceiving someone to gain an unfair or unlawful advantage, often involving money, personal information, or property. This can take many forms, such as identity theft, scams, false claims, or misrepresentation.

Common examples include:

  • Phishing: Trick emails or messages that steal personal information
  • Identity Theft: Using someone else’s identity for financial gain
  • Financial Fraud: Manipulating transactions or payments for illegal profit
