Concluding Thoughts. 330 $aThrough analysis of data held by the National Crime Agency on organised crime groups, and in-depth analysis of qualitative interviews with convicted fraudsters and enforcement professionals, this detailed study fills a significant gap in the contemporary literature on organised crime groups involved in fraud. Throughout the chapters, the perspective of convicted offenders and those involved in its policing are juxtaposed to show the ease of committing fraud from the perspective of offenders on the one hand, and the investigative challenges experienced by law enforcement officers on the other. May and Bhardwa?s insights shed light on offender motivations, routes into fraud and organised crime, and the nature and shape of organised crime groups and their operations. Alongside the offender perspective the law enforcement interviews provide a unique interpretation of the procedural and legislative weaknesses that appear to allow this type of offender to make considerable financial gain. The key recommendations based on empirical findings will greatly benefit those interested in understanding the links between fraud and organised crime in the UK and those seeking to improve enforcement efforts. . 410 0$aCrime Prevention and Security Management 606 $aOrganized crime 606 $aCommercial crimes 606 $aCrime prevention 606 $aPolice 606 $aComputer crimes 606 $aOrganized Crime$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/1B8000 606 $aFinancial Crime$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/1BD010 606 $aCrime Prevention$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/1BE010 606 $aPolicing$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/1B2000 606 $aCybercrime$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/1B7000 615 0$aOrganized crime. 615 0$aCommercial crimes. 615 0$aCrime prevention. 615 0$aPolice. 615 0$aComputer crimes. 615 14$aOrganized Crime. 615 24$aFinancial Crime. 615 24$aCrime Prevention. 615 24$aPolicing. 615 24$aCybercrime. 676 $a364.163 700 $aMay$b Tiggey$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0961488 702 $aBhardwa$b Bina$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910300048703321 996 $aOrganised Crime Groups involved in Fraud$92179759 997 $aUNINA
