However, this surge in adoption has precipitated a concerning rise in cybercrimes. This prompts users to reassess preferred payment modes and occasionally leads to a shift back to traditional cash transactions. Given the central role of digital payments in steering the digital economy’s growth and their profound impact on a country’s gross domestic product, the imperative to augment the number of digital payment users becomes increasingly compelling. In response to this imperative, this article introduces a game theoretical model to comprehend how digital payment service providers can ensure optimal security for their services and systems. The objective extends beyond merely addressing the escalating threat of cybercrime; it also seeks to cultivate a pervasive sense of safety among users. Simultaneously, it endeavours to dissuade cybercriminals from investing efforts in exploiting the robust security measures implemented by digital payment service providers. To validate the efficacy of our model, we employed a strategic approach. We have formulated four research questions using the problematization technique and leveraging a thorough examination of the existing literature. Subsequently, we systematically map the findings of our model, ensuring a nuanced alignment with the existing academic discourse. The article aims to have a widespread and significant impact by enhancing security and fundamentally influencing the trajectory of digital payment adoption, thereby contributing to the development of the digital economy.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":100775,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Economic Criminology","volume":"5 ","pages":"Article 100089"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-08-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2949791424000411/pdfft?md5=2a5cbbe9d44782788f8063b217b6b90b&pid=1-s2.0-S2949791424000411-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142040950","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Although dishonesty is a core characteristic of these offences, we are not aware of any prior research that examines the direct, relationship between dishonest attitude and economic crime. Based on a survey of the British public, this article presents insights into this relationship. By profiling the integrity, dishonest disposition and everyday economic criminality of the British public, the study finds a strong relationship between attitudes and harmful dishonest behaviour such that, in a given year, 26 % of adults in the UK commit at least one economic crime. The higher levels of dishonesty in males and younger adults helps to explain their more prolific offending. Both the honesty and age-economic crime curves indicate that the maturation decline in offending is gradual compared to the sharp desistance in early adulthood of the traditional age-crime curve. Whilst this finding also contradicts the conventional view that economic crime is a middle-aged problem, it helps to explain this perception. By comparing the attitude results to a 2011 study, the research further found that the maturation effect is more pronounced due to a decline in integrity of the under 55 y population so that the younger generations now have a steeper moral hill to climb.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":100775,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Economic Criminology","volume":"5 ","pages":"Article 100090"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-08-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2949791424000423/pdfft?md5=adbba09f7c3db067d5595a44d8ccd3a5&pid=1-s2.0-S2949791424000423-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141991133","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
