The issue of fraud is pervasive at the individual citizen level and also at the business, large organisation, level. The chances of it happening are not confined to a certain type of person or a specific commercial sector. Nor is it bound by geography and so any person and any organisation almost anywhere can be vulnerable to the one-off or persistent fraudster, minded to take advantage when an opportunity presents itself.
