#fraud #society #be
In recent times, fraudulent activities have spiked up greatly.
This
 could be argued to be
as a result
 of the quest to acquire wealth and material things without having to work for them.
This
 essay will consider the possible reasons for the increase in
fraud
 levels and identify the how to reduce the menace in the
society
.
Firstly
, the decrease in social values has been identified as one of the reasons why youths engage in
ilicit
contrary to accepted morality (especially sexual morality) or convention
illicit
 wealth. Folks no longer worry about what their peers as well as religious leaders will say, when they are caught in acts of
fraud
.
For example
, the Federal Bureau of Investigations reported that 80 Nigerians were arrested for wire
fraud
.
Consequently
, they were arrested and named.
Thus
 creating a feud in the social media platforms as to why they had to enrich themselves fraudulently.
Also
, bad behaviours are easily learnt.
some
Suggestion
Some
 good people get involved in
fraud
 because of their associations. As an illustration, the Daily Times reported that 70 percent of cyber
fraud
 fraudsters are members of the same social groups.
However
, some school of thoughts
have
Suggestion
has
 a different view. They believe that the rate of unemployment and underemployment contribute significantly to the prevalence of
fraud
 in the
society
.
For instance
, in Nigeria, unemployment has maintained a steady increase since 2014, rising as high as 30 percent. Certainly, people will have to find what to do to make ends meet. In summary, no one should thrive at the expense of other individuals. The
society
 must find a way of discouraging
fraud
, either by rewarding good morals or via laws that will seek to criminalize fraudulent activities.
Accordingly
,
this
 will help mitigate the incidence of
fraud
 in the
society
.
