Fraud causes far more than money loss: Australia reports $634M in 2019 and the US $3.5B, yet reporting is often low (under one third reported). Offenders work in groups, use social engineering, urgency and psychological abuse techniques, and tailor approaches (romance, BEC, advanced‑fee, COVID lures). Technology—spam filters, AI, bank controls and reporting portals like Scamwatch and ReportCyber—helps but fails to stop human vulnerabilities; victims face homelessness, depression and sometimes suicide, and policing and redress remain fragmented.
