IT fraud is a disgusting thing to do. It is so easy to pull off as to why many people do it. You see, the problem with IT fraud is that people that does not involve their selves with IT, has a tendency to have a hard time distinguishing fact from fraud. It is their lack of education and gullible tendencies that makes them an easy target. Another factor of people falling victim of IT fraud is the tendency of people to get attracted to "cheap" IT products. Take this instance for example; In E-bay, there was a time where a certain 32G “Sony" USB Flash disk was being sold for like, 1.5k++ pesos. It was a shock to many back to people on how a 32G USB flash drive was so cheap since during those times, a 1G generic flash disk already costs 1k+ pesos. Because of this, may people bought the USB disk, a lot bought bundles of order only to find out soon after that it was a FAKE. The 32G "Sony" USB disk might really show that it contains 32G when you look it up on properties, but, once you store big files in it, the files would be saved, but wont be retrievable anymore. But then, people didn’t know that. People still believed that it was 32G since it showed 32G on property and even worse, told their friends about it. More people got tricked because of that and even more people got rich. You see, before we buy something unbelievable, we should first look it up in the net to see if whether it exists or not. If not, don’t bother buying it because it most probably is a fraud.
