Episode Forteen - Is it a "scam" or is it a "fraud"?

What's the difference between a scam and a fraud?Do you have the same reaction when told someone has been scammed as you would if you'd been told they'd been the victim of fraud? That's the question we look at in this week's episode as we look at a paper entitled "More than splitting hairs: Exploring trivialisation and harmful narrative distortion in the synonymous use of ‘scam’ and ‘fraud’". It is authored by Elisabeth Carter, Jack Mark Whittaker, and Tim Day, and published in the journal Crime Media Culture. https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/17416590251393960To contact A Perspective on Crime follow the link belowhttps://tr.ee/Ymb5yiqRUW Hosted on Acast.
