What is Online Fraud?

Fraud is making a dishonest and false representation to make a gain, or cause a loss to another party. Online fraud occurs where the fraudster makes the false representation in some form on the internet. Some examples are as follows:

• Online Investment Fraud - there are a lot of Wealth Management and Investments Scam Websites which are prommissing the high interest on your investment in Real Estate, StartUps, Stocks, Cryptocurrency, Blockchain. Our Clients' loss was between CHF 100k and CHF 12M. 

• Online dating fraud – there are lots of organizations and individuals out there who create fake profiles on dating sites with the intention of persuading you to hand over your personal information and often your bank details. This is also known as Online Romance Fraud. Our Clients loss was between CHF 10k and CHF 2M.

• Government agency scams – when fraudsters send out official-looking emails and letters, giving the impression that they are from a government department and have authority, and ask for money or personal information.

• Work from home scams – lots of websites and web adverts ask if you are interested in making easy money from home. But many of the products and services you’re asked to try and sell are worthless.

• Online shopping fraud – this happens when sellers misrepresent items online, or fail to deliver items after buyers have paid.
