More than 2.8 million people in the United States reported being victims of fraud in 2021, resulting in a combined $5.8 billion in losses, according to the Federal Trade Commission (FTC). Learning to practice better online security, including learning how to identify a scammer, will only become more important in the years to come.

As in previous years, many of the latest scams in 2024 will likely involve twists on time-tested scams. Scammers and fraudsters are expected to exploit new technology and emotions around major events yet to come, to trick and scare people. But scammers will always have the same goal—to get your personal information or money. Learning about these latest developments will hopefully help you stay one step ahead.
