Current Problems of Countering Fraud in the Sphere of Computer Information
( Pp. 144-148)

In the modern world, the general informatization and digitalization of computer information is of paramount importance for the implementation of many legally significant actions in a remote format. Currently, most people cannot imagine their daily life and professional activities without remote access to many information products, which is carried out on the basis of providing personal data about a person. The prevalence of the use of computer information creates significant risks of their use not only in a lawful form. So, quite often criminal communities illegally gain access to the personal data of the population and use them in the future to commit fraudulent activities. Despite the fact that Russian criminal law provides for liability for fraud in various areas, including the use of computer information, and many state authorities are actively implementing mechanisms to combat the above-mentioned illegal behavior, at present fraud in this area is one of the most common. The purpose of writing a research paper is to identify the existing problems of combating fraud in the field of computer information and determine the most effective ways to solve them. The author comes to the conclusion that in order to commit illegal actions with computer information, identification of a person is often required, which fraudsters carry out directly by contacting the owner of the relevant information. In this context, preventive and preventive activities aimed at increasing the level of information, digital and legal literacy of the population, through which it is proposed to form in people a conscious perception of the existing risks and threats of using computer information, stand out as the most promising direction for improving the mechanisms for combating this type of fraud.
