Retail/Auction Fraud
By: Genevieve Canada
Auction fraud involves fraudulent shopping scams.
An example of this would be if you bought a desktop computer, but really just got a computer box, filled with something other than a computer such as rocks.
You can prevent this by checking the background of people in which you are purchasing items from. You can also prevent this by using reliable stores and companies to buy your products from such as amazon, apple, etc or checking the URL to see if it is a trusted website.
