Abstract:
Background Older adults often fall victim to technology (tech) support fraud, with criminals leveraging on psychological manipulation and perceived authority to exploit victims. Often unfamiliar with evolving digital threats, they may be particularly susceptible due to cognitive aging, social isolation, and trust in perceived authoritative figures. Despite growing awareness of cyber fraud, there are insufficient tailored fraud preventive strategies that address the specific vulnerabilities of older victims.

Abstract:
Studies indicate that the elderly population is more susceptible to crime than other age group s as they are socially lonely and tend to stick to obvious behavioural patterns. The mental and physical limitations caused by old age further aids to a profile of a potential victim of fraud. The elderly often succumb to various types of crimes; one such crime is fraud. In Sweden elderly fraud only constitutes a minor part of all the fraud that is reported. However, statistics from the Swedish National Council for Crime Prevention indicate that cases have been on the increase since 2017. The present

When Martin Luther supposedly nailed his Ninety-Five Theses in 1517 to the Castle Church door in Wittenberg, the small town had only a single printing press. By the end of the century, Wittenberg had published more books than any other city in the Holy Roman Empire. Of the leading print centres in early modern Europe, Wittenberg was the only one that was not a major centre of trade, politics, or culture. This thesis examines the rise of the Wittenberg printing industry and analyses how it overtook the Empire's leading print centres. Luther's controversy—and the publications it produced—attract

Abstract:
Research cannot always confirm public opinion that elderly are more susceptible to fraud than younger adults. Age-related cognitive and motivational changes increase vulnerability. Social factors are fairly ignored by research but may explain why elderly´s vulnerability does not necessarily result in fraud victimization. This systematic review applied a keyword- and reference-based search strategy to explain contradictory research findings and propose a model about social factors mediating and moderating the relationship between age and fraud victimization.
