Abstract

The article "The Psychology of Deception: Understanding Fraudulent Practices" deals with the various aspects of fraud and how perpetrators manipulate their victims. It examines various scams and strategies, both online and offline. The text explains how beliefs and attitudes can influence people's behavior and how fraudsters use cognitive shortcuts to influence decisions. A case of cyber trading fraud is mentioned as an example, in which perpetrators deceived private investors. Various psychological mechanisms used by fraudsters to manipulate their victims are also described. The study by Ihm (2011) examines the characteristics of fraudsters and shows that they value certain internal variables higher. The list at the end of the article contains various sources on the topics of fraud, psychology, and cybercrime. [Extracted from the article]
