Ghosting scams

Ghosting is commonly used to describe the act of suddenly cutting off all communication with someone. It involves ignoring messages, calls, and any form of contact - essentially disappearing from the other person's life as if you were a ghost.

When it comes to scams, ghosting takes on an entirely new meaning. In ghosting scams, cybercriminals steal personal information from deceased people to commit fraud. In some cases, they exploit the deceased person's information in order to open new accounts, apply for loans, or even receive a tax refund.

Ghosting scam consequences

• Financial losses resulting from unauthorized transactions
• Harm to the deceased person's reputation
• Emotional distress experienced by the victim's family members
• Difficulties in obtaining life insurance or other benefits due to the compromised credit history of the deceased person.
