Summary: | "Most of us have become victims of frauds and related crimes at some point or other in our life. We may not have answers to pertinent questions related to the cheating we were subjected to such as - Who is responsible for the fraud committed on us?, What makes us vulnerable to cheating?, Who could have prevented the crime?, What could we do to prevent the crime in future?, and What action should we take to recover the losses? In this book, we examine above questions by briefly analyzing various types of white collar crimes, drawing examples of such crimes that have happened across the world. History reveals that crimes travel across the globe in time as criminals learn from each other for their criminal indulgences. We hear about a crime elsewhere - in a different city or a country - and within no time you find the same thing happening with necessary improvisation and sophistication in our own neighborhood. The focus, as mentioned earlier, is on the victims of such crimes. Through the analysis of various WCCs detailed in the subsequent chapters, we would be able to gain some insights into the why, how, and what of the WCCs from the perspective of victimology"-- |
