History
In the late 1990's, there were but a handful of web sites
on the Internet centered on fraud. The few that existed were not helpful
in a practical, applicable sense to victims of fraud, their friends, and
their families, nor did those sites provide in-depth fraud recognition
education that could be immediately absorbed and understood by any reader, regardless of
nationality or level of education.
Fraud Aid was founded to fill that gap.
The
Backstage Tour explains the
basis and technique of all frauds, including a profile of how con artists
think and what motivates them.

The
Dictionary of Financial Scam TermsÓ offers
viewers a means to research how financial instruments are actually used
and processed and how they are
misrepresented by con artists: The Truth vs. The Scam.

The
Fraud Victim's ManualÓ assists fraud victims in their effort to come to grips with
what happened to them. The Manual includes a 12-Step list for emotional
recovery; an explanation of Miranda Rights and how it used by
fraud victims who face the possibility of arrest; an explanation of the
different branches of US law enforcement and reporting agencies, on and
off the Internet; and a step-by-step guide for writing a court-presentable
report of the fraud (narrative).

The narrative, titled "How to Write an Effective Fraud
Report", organizes the fraud victim's thoughts, memories, and Items of
Proof needed by law enforcement and the prosecution to process an investigation leading to a
better chance of successful conviction.

The "about" pages, titled "One Woman's Life in the
Secret World of International Financial Fraud," describes in story
format how Mrs. McGuire was drawn into the world of the con artists who
scammed her. The sequence of events was written in such a manner as to be
immediately recognizable to anyone who has been unlucky enough to have
brushed up against an experienced con artist perpetrating a long term
fraud.

As sections are added to the
Fraud Aid web site, the principles apply as stated in our Credo:
We actively seek out any and all information related to
fraud
and present our findings in an easy to understand manner
such that anyone in the world,
regardless of their culture and circumstances,
can apply what they learn to their personal situation.
