In the first 6 months of 2023, the online fraud situation in Vietnam increased by 64.78% compared to the same period last year. This figure also increased by 37.82% compared to the last 6 months of 2022.
The groups that are often vulnerable to fraud are the elderly, students, children, workers, laborers and office workers. One of the main reasons for this situation comes from people's awareness.
