Abstract

The prevention of fraud against older adults and other age groups, has been the subject of limited research with very few systematic attempts to map different tools and strategies that are used. This paper using the UK and South Korea as a starting point, but other countries too, maps some of the most common tools and strategies used to prevent frauds that target older adults. It develops the first comprehensive typology of strategies built upon the degree to which they embrace modern technology. It shows much of the prevention used is low tech, but high-tech solutions rooted in the fourth industrial revolution technologies are emerging and growing. The paper draws these different strategies and tools together to offer a holistic model for the prevention of fraud against older adults for further debate and utilisation by professionals.

防止老年人遭受欺诈：建立整体保护模式

对预防针对老年人和其他年龄组的欺诈行为的研究一直很有限，很少有系统性的尝试来绘制所使用的不同工具和策略。本文以英国和韩国为起点，结合其他国家的情况，介绍了预防针对老年人的欺诈行为的一些最常用的工具和策略。本文首次根据这些策略采用现代技术的程度对其进行了全面分类。报告显示，大部分预防措施技术含量较低，但植根于第四次工业革命技术的高科技解决方案正在出现和发展。本文将这些不同的策略和工具汇集在一起，为预防针对老年人的欺诈提供了一个整体模型，供专业人士进一步讨论和使用。
