Abstract

Fraud in the digital environment is considered one of the most dangerous types of digital corruption. This new phenomenon has allowed its perpetrators to enter homes and offices, cross borders, and reach victims with great ease, especially with the spread of the Internet as an important means of providing financial and banking services. Meanwhile, electronic fraudsters invent new methods daily to deceive their victims and ensnare them. At a time when Internet hackers and professional electronic fraudsters work around the clock to innovate new methods and find vulnerabilities through which they can carry out their tasks, information security companies, along with banks and financial and banking institutions, have created specialized technical departments to protect customers and secure their financial transactions over the Internet.

On a daily basis, bankers and computer experts discover many methods used in fraud operations, including those related to email messages and others related to daily conversations conducted by users and other types of communication.

Thus, electronic fraud is considered one of the most important and dangerous forms of digital corruption that various international and national efforts have sought to combat. The aim of this study is to shed light on the various forms of electronic fraud.
