Males and females suffer from roughly the same scams and lose approximately the same amounts of money.

 

 

 

 

There are small differences in the types of scams that men and women respectively fall for most commonly and there are some differences across age groups but for adults the level of scams suffered is not really a match to age groups.

 

It is clear that 25-55 is the age group most affected by scams and this is likely to be because these are the most economically active ages.

For the same reason, managerial and professional people are more likely than other occupational groups to be scam victims.

If you have any experiences with scammers, spammers or time-waster do let me know, by email.
