Introduction
Definition
Online fraud refers to deceitful schemes that are done using the
internet. Online fraud may
come in the form of financial theft, identity theft or a
combination of both.
History of Online Fraud
An influx of online fraud began to be experienced in the 1990s
with the increased technology
use and e-commerce. In the beginning, online fraud was done by
using the names of famous
celebrities of the time to commit internet crimes. Over time,
more technical and sophisticated
plans were developed such as creating card-generator
applications with real credit card
numbers, setting up dummy merchant websites and mass
identity theft. Today, despite
attempts by various governments to regulate and mitigate online
fraud, more sophisticated

3. online fraud schemes have been established ranging from credit
card fraud to phishing,
hacking, and identity theft (Saeger & Probert, 2015).
In the recent past, computer fraud has evolved through a series
of advancements outplaying
the traditional security defenses such as the two-factor
authentication, antivirus, and SSL
encryption in the process. Zeus and SpyEye are the most
common attack tools used by
hackers since they support the gathering of vast volumes of
extremely sensitive
authentication data. It has been established that no single
application is immune to attacks
and the malicious attackers are focusing more on online banking
accounts because they offer
HOW TO AVOID INTERNET SCAMS AT THE WORKPLACE

most direct payoff. Online fraud is based on three core
technologies: the botnet controllers
capable of handling hundreds of thousands of bots, highly
effective data collection, and

4. sophisticated Trojans that are updateable.
Form grabbing for PCs running IE/Windows has been a
simplified approach for fraud. The
technique helps attackers to extract data within browsers. The
deployment of form grabbing
on compromised PCs allowed hackers to obtain numerous
numbers of online bank account
IDs and passwords. The password-based authentication was
termed no longer safe for online
banking prompting the introduction of two-factor authentication
(Mellinger, 2011).
Nevertheless, criminals still found the loophole that helps them
to challenge the security of
two-factor authentication through web injects. Malicious
attackers that promote online fraud
have created various techniques.
As a result, efforts to combat crimeware have been put into
place. Computer fraud
jeopardizes our security, privacy, and anonymity. There is the
need for cybercrime analysts to
find out the extent to which malware attacks and viruses have
affected our technologies to
ensure damage control (Mellinger, 2011). Moreover, they
should develop new approaches to

5. controlling the spreading of computer fraud in daily operations.
Besides, government
agencies need to increase their accountability by bankrolling an
anti-crimeware program and
detecting all forms of online fraud.
Numbers on Online Fraud
The numbers of online fraud have reached a record high as of
the year 2017. The top fraud of
2017 has been reported to online imposters with at least one in
every five people having been
duped by fraudsters. A whopping three hundred and twenty-
eight million has been lost
through this form of online fraud (Vaca, 2018). Identity theft
and credit card theft has also
been reported to be among the top forms of online fraud. Sixty-
three thousand people
HOW TO AVOID INTERNET SCAMS AT THE WORKPLACE

reported tax fraud in 2017. In 2017, the total amount of money
lost to online fraudsters in the
United States was recorded as nine hundred million dollars, a

6. seven percent increase from the
amount lost in 2016. Cacciottolo and Rees (2017) report that in
the United Kingdom, over
three thousand eight hundred online dating fraud victims had
lost over thirty-nine million
dollars in 2016 to online fraudsters.
Recent studies have illustrated that cases of internet scam are
on the rise. These cases have
accounted to loss of more than $100 billion by companies and
individuals. Internet scammers
continue to develop diverse ways to blackmail or defraud
individuals without their
knowledge. Both professionals and non-professionals are
susceptible to online fraud and this
complicates the issue. According to the Scam Tracker by the
Better Bureau reports, computer
fraud has continued to escalate in the recent past with over
46,000 cases reported in 2007 in
the United States and more than 30,000 cases had been reported
by mid-August in 2018
(Wagner, 2018). The table below illustrates the growing cases
of internet fraud in the U.S.

Types of Online Fraud and How They Occur
According to Rampton (2015), online payment fraud is
continuously growing. A significant
share of the fraudulent transactions emanates from mobile
commerce. E-commerce fraud also
referred to as purchase fraud happens when a fraudster
approaches an innocent party and
recommends a business transaction by application of fraudulent
means such as fake or stolen
credit card. In the process, the merchant is left unpaid during
the business transaction. Online
store owners are more exposed to online fraud. The continuing
advancement of technology
jeopardizes payment methods and the data processing systems in
most institutions. Often,
online fraud occurred when a credit card got lost or its
information was not stored securely,

8. but the card-not-present (CNP) frauds have continued to grow
recently.
Fraudulent orders have increased from 1.58% in 2017 to 1.8% in
2018 in terms of the
percentage of total revenue loss in online stores . The most
common types of e-commerce
fraud include friendly fraud and clean fraud.
The Friendly Fraud
The friendly fraud occurs when a client buys a product or pays
for some services with their
personal credit card, and issues a deliberate chargeback arguing
that the product or services
were never received or claims that they never made these
charges. Online business supports
friendly fraud as it allows customers to perform reverse
transactions (Bumbiere, 2018). In
most cases, chargebacks are allowed to safeguard clients from
online scams, but customers
have started taking advantage by using it in place of refunds.
The credit card companies
continue to suffer from the narrative that the customer is always
right as they place the
burden of proof on retailers during these dubious transactions.

9. HOW TO AVOID INTERNET SCAMS AT THE WORKPLACE
6
Friendly Fraud can be prevented through various means. The
client must take responsibility
by ensuring that the credit card distributor matches the business
name. Most often, the
chargeback fraud takes place when customers fail to identify the
name of the company on
their card statements. Customers are advised to use shipping
with tracking since it makes it
easier to provide evidence where the products were delivered.
Moreover, it is vital to ensure
there are clear reshipping, return, and refunds policies before
making any transactions.
The Clean Fraud
The clean fraud takes place when a stolen credit card is used to
make a purchase. It needs a
high skill and expertise to happen. The clean fraud is regarded
as the ultimate doppelganger
since it appears like a genuine transaction with good billing,
shipping, and IP addresses
together with complete and verified card data (Bumbiere, 2018).

10. The clean fraud entails four
steps. First, the criminals obtain the cardholder information
through data breaches and card
skimming. Second, during the purchase, the fraudsters utilize
the card’s information by
impersonating the cardholder making online purchases. Thirdly,
believing the transaction is
legitimate; the merchant accepts the sale and processes
payment. Lastly, the merchant is
pressurized for chargebacks and lost merchandise when the
fraud is found out.
For small retailers, avoiding clean fraud will require regular
software updates since it can
bypass the fraud detection tools easily. Smaller retailers are
advised to use the free trial plans
of the fraud detection software during holidays from companies
such as Kount, Signifyd, and
Sift Science. Huge retailers have the resources required to
purchase the fraud detection
software, and they need to buy them even though they are
extremely pricey. Retailers must be
keen during any transactions, and this can help to detect some
of the cases.

11. HOW TO AVOID INTERNET SCAMS AT THE WORKPLACE

Online fraud occurs in various ways. Some of these include
online intellectual property theft,
identity theft, phishing, untrustworthy websites, credit card
fraud, and hacking.
Online Intellectual Property Theft
Any author or creator of information has intellectual property
rights to their material, which
prohibits other users from using or publishing the material
without the owner’s consent.
Today, online fraudsters use this material on their own sites
without the owner’s permission.
This is called online intellectual theft.
Identity Theft
This occurs when a fraudster steals another person’s personal
information such as names,
address, birth-date, and account details and uses the stolen
information to create an identity
under which they hide when committing fraud.
Phishing

12. Phishing occurs through emails or websites whereby fraudsters
attempt to get personal data
such as credit card details, passwords and account details. The
fraudsters then use this
information unlawfully by defrauding the unsuspecting users
(Cassim, 2014).
Credit Card Fraud
This fraud occurs once a person enters their credit card details
on deceitful websites.
Fraudsters then use this information to make unlawful purchases
without the owner’s
permission
Hacking
This entails gaining illegal entry into a computer system. This
enables the hacker to steal
money or carry out other unlawful dealings without exposing
their actual identity.
HOW TO AVOID INTERNET SCAMS AT THE WORKPLACE

Prevention of Online Fraud
Monitor and be conscious

13. People should use different passwords for their accounts and
choose long strong passwords,
which may not be hacked easily. Secondly, even though there
may be many legitimate sellers
online, one should be keen on whom they give their
information. Before clicking on any
links, one should make the habit of running a full scan with
their antivirus software.
Computer Software
Organizations may install security systems, firewalls, and
encryption that protect their client's
data from hackers (Cross & Kelly, 2016). Individuals may also
install antivirus applications
and passwords on their phones and personal computers. This
reveals that every individual
should be concerned about the security of their private
information and everyone has a role to
play towards prevention of online fraud.
Keep Financial Data Separate
Businesses and corporations should develop a culture that will
create a dedicated workstation
to conduct all financial activities. It is important to use
different computers to conduct non-

14. banking business. Before switching off the computers used for
the financial services, users
are advised to back up all sensitive information and even erase
the hard drive prior to
recycling it.
Know who is asking
Financial institutions such as banks do not send sensitive emails
or messages asking for
personal information such as social security numbers. These
institutions disapprove any
attempts to verify account information using this approach.
People should understand the
safety associated with not sharing personal information such as
account numbers, social
security or tax ID numbers, passwords or log in information
through email or text. An
HOW TO AVOID INTERNET SCAMS AT THE WORKPLACE
9
individual can only share his/her sensitive information to a bank
through the bank’s secure
online banking platform. Any email that asks for sensitive

15. information is illegitimate and
people should verify its authenticity before replying or sending
personal details.
Protect your computer
Cyber-attacks have been on the rise recently. Installing
antivirus software, therefore, is
important to any computer or network. Users should regularly
update their software to
safeguard their computers from computer viruses. Software such
as anti-spam software aids
in preventing spam and junk email from entering into the inbox
of emails and this protect
against phishing emails. Besides, every computer should be
installed with a firewall as it
avoids unauthorized persons, viruses, or malware, from access.
The anti-spyware software,
nonetheless, blocks the spyware installation on your computer
thus redirecting malicious
websites or pop-ups.
Keep your passwords secret
Computers users should avoid sharing their passwords.
Additionally, always leave any
documents with financial data in a secure place. Changing

16. passwords on a regular basis help
to improve the protection and it is necessary to combine
numbers, letters, and special
characters. Administrators should change password and the
default SSID of the wireless
network on a regular basis.
Conclusion
Evidently, online fraud poses a big threat to organizations as
well as individuals. The vice has
caused businesses and individuals millions of dollars each year.
With increased internet
usage, fraudsters continue to device newer and more
sophisticated ways of committing online
fraud. It is, therefore, important for every individual to be more
aware of the various forms in
which online fraud may occur. This way, they are in a better
position to save themselves from
HOW TO AVOID INTERNET SCAMS AT THE WORKPLACE
10
being victims of online fraud. Apart from increased
consciousness while using the internet

17. and monitoring where their personal information goes, it is also
important that organizations
invest in a current security system which is able to protect their
information from hackers and
fraudsters.
Business corporations should implement measures to prevent
the online fraud cases because
of the damages and losses that they can cause. As illustrated,
company can adhere to various
approaches such as installing the anti-virus software, adware
software, and anti-spyware for
protection. Nevertheless, firewall installation allows necessary
connections and protects
computers from viruses, malware, and hackers. Regular updates
of software help in
maintenance and increase the security of servers and the
computer infrastructure at large.
Businesses continue to develop measures to safeguard
themselves from online fraud and this
includes creating awareness to their employees and preventing
them from downloading
freeware or shareware from unfamiliar sources (Goldsmith,
2007). Failure to safeguard the
computers from malicious attacks can jeopardize the personal

18. information of clients and
destroy the reputation of companies. Businesses should create a
trustworthy environment if
they want to succeed both in the short-term and long-term.

How to Avoid Internet Scams in the Workplace
Purpose
This section outlines how the researcher envisions presenting
the report. The
outline demonstrates the different sections in which the report
will be broken into and the

29. information that will be contained in each section.
2. Definition
Online fraud refers to deceitful schemes that are done using
the internet. Online fraud may
come in the form of financial theft, identity theft or a
combination of both.
History of Online Fraud
An influx of online fraud began to be experienced in the 1990s
with the increased technology use
and e-commerce. In the beginning, online fraud was done by
using the names of famous celebrities
of the time to commit internet crimes. Over time, more
technical and sophisticated plans were
developed such as creating card-generator applications with real
credit card numbers, setting up
dummy merchant websites and mass identity theft. Today,
despite attempts by various
governments to regulate and mitigate online fraud, more
sophisticated online fraud schemes have
been established ranging from credit card fraud to phishing,
hacking, and identity theft (Saeger &
Probert, 2015).

30. CIST 3000: Advanced Writing for IS&T
Specifications for Assignment 5: Design of Report
DUE DATE: Week 9/Monday, April 2nd
Cover Letter (15 Points), Style Sheet (20 Points), Sample Pages
(40)
75 Points TOTAL
OVERVIEW
In this fifth assignment, you will create a design for your
report. The lectures for Week 9 are critical to understanding
design elements and what is required for this deliverable. Please
review the lectures and read Chapters 12 and 13 before starting
on your design.
You will submit three documents: (1) a cover letter, (2) a style
sheet for the report format, and (3) sample pages that show
design elements for the report.
You may not use a Microsoft (or any other vendor) template for
your design. You must create your own design for this
assignment.
PART 1: COVER LETTER, STYLE SHEET, AND SAMPLE
PAGES
1.1 Write the cover letter
The cover letter should include the following:
(1) Introduction: Brief overview of design choices in general,
relating the choices to your target audience
(2) Body: Explanation of and reasons for specific design of the
cover and title page, font choices, colors, etc. and how it
connects to the content of the report
(3) Conclusion: Emphasize goal of design and expectations of

31. the recipient
Remember that a cover letter always needs an introduction, the
body of the content, and a conclusion. Leave the recipient with
a clear understanding of why you are presenting this
information and what you expect from the recipient.
Use the same format for the cover letter as you used for the
previous assignments. Incorporate all feedback you received on
prior cover letters.
1.2 Develop the style sheet
A style sheet is a type of specification for your report. It is a
listing of elements (not written in sentence form and not
requiring any discussion). The listing must identify each of the
following design elements. If you are not using one of the seven
design elements specified below, then list that element and say
why you will not be using it.
(1) Font(s) you will use, font sizes, and how each font will be
used (for example, whether for headings or captions)
(2) Heading styles (what they will look like and for which level
each will be used; show a minimum of three levels)
(3) Colors that you will use
(4) Margins
(5) Headers and/or footers
(6) Page numbering
(7) Any visual guides for the reader
A visual guide is a visual that you use to help orient the reader
in different parts of the report. One example of a visual guide is
the use of a specific graphic to visually identify a section. For
example, if you were discussing a telecommunications network
and you had a separate section for each component of the
network, you might have a single graphic that represented the

32. entire system and, for each section, you would highlight the
relevant component.
Visual guides may also be used to signal a definition. Visual
guides are especially useful in a presentation. Visual guides
may not be relevant for every report.
1.3 Develop the sample pages
The sample pages document should show a separate sample
design page for each one of the elements of the final report.
You do not need to provide any discussion of the sample pages.
Simply show each page. (The table of contents is likely to be
more than a single page.)
(1) Cover
(2) Title page
(3) Tentative table of contents for the report, showing actual
headings and sub-headings for the report in its most up-to-date
form
(4) Layout of the first page of a major section of the report (a
major section is the equivalent of a Roman numeral section or
the first page of what would be a chapter in a book)
(5) Layout of a typical text page (a page that is not the first
page of a section)
(6) Sample table on a typical text page
(7) Sample graph on a typical text page
For the sample table and graph, use data that is relevant to your
report subject and is likely to be included in your final report.
Cite the source for that data. You may not copy a finished table
or graph from another source; you must create your own.
For the table or graph, you may start with a template from your
word-processing software, but just changing a few things like a
line color or a word is not enough. Create your own design,
even if you use a default style as a starting point.

33. 1.4 Submit written deliverables
Submit the cover letter and draft as a PDF file in the
Assignment 5 folder. Print TWO hard copies and bring to class
on the due date. Save the file as LastNameA5 prior to
submitting.
PART 2: PEER REVIEW
Review all cover letter and design postings and provide
comments on the quality and appeal of each design, using the
details from the grading rubric as your guide. Include any
questions, concerns, or suggestions you have about the design.
Usefulness of your comments and questions means more than
word count. Reviews and critiques should be constructive.
GRADING
The folder for Assignment 5 contains the grading rubric. The
dimensions are the same as previous rubrics, but the details in
the dimensions are different to reflect the different focus of this
assignment. Please review those details carefully so that you
have a good understanding of what it takes to succeed on this
assignment.
