Recommendation 23
23
Paragraph: 88
Police training inadequately addresses technology-exploiting fraud crimes and evolving offending methods.
Conclusion
Fraud crimes can be easy to spot in many cases if a police officer has adequate awareness of technological developments, but can be missed in the absence of such knowledge. The training of police remains focused on more traditional crime types whereas there is clearly a need for it to keep pace with the changing nature of offending.
