Research and Markets: 2012 Identity Fraud Report: Social Media and Mobile Forming the New Fraud Frontier

Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/a081baa7/2012_identity_frau)
has announced the addition of Javelin Strategy Research‘s new report
“2012 Identity Fraud Report: Social Media and Mobile Forming the New
Fraud Frontier” to their offering.

Identity fraud experienced an increase in incidence rate, affecting
4.90% of U.S. adults in 2011. Despite the increase, total fraud amount
has not moved in tandem, staying steady from the previous year. The
increase in existing card account fraud, which enjoys the lowest mean
fraud amount of the three major types of fraud, has been the root of
this disparate movement.

Javelin has taken a deep look into emerging technologies such as
social media sites and mobile devices to see how their increasing
ubiquity has affected user risk. The Javelin 2012 Identity Fraud
Report provides a detailed, comprehensive analysis of identity fraud
in the United States to help consumers and businesses better
understand the effectiveness of methods used for its prevention,
detection, and resolution of fraud.

A representative sample of 5,022 U.S. adults, including 818 fraud
victims, providing insight into this crime and its effect on victims.
This report is supported by the Better Business Bureau, issued as a
longitudinal update to the Javelin 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010,
and 2011 Identity Fraud reports and the Federal Trade Commission’s
2003 report.
