The creation of trust and deception regarding fraud. An interactionistic study.

该研究项目从社会学角度探讨刑事欺诈现象。它侧重于常见和广泛使用的“骗局和计划”。这些骗局和计划涉及精心设计的程序，通过这些程序，人们被欺骗，信任地授予某人访问其个人资产的权限。这些骗局中的许多已经成功地使用了很长一段时间。它们是被证明的和令人信服的欺骗形式。这使他们成为一个有趣的研究课题，探索这一现象的两个未充分研究的方面：第一，研究在具体的互动中执行诈骗时如何创建信任和欺骗的问题，第二，研究欺诈者如何获得必要的知识，以及这种知识是如何形成和转移的。在定性研究中对这些问题进行了调查，在此过程中，对参与欺诈活动的行为者进行了探索性访谈，如“犯罪者”、“受害者”和“警方调查员”。这些数据将以刑事档案的文件分析作为补充。该研究项目侧重于典型的骗局，如假信用额度和贷款，投资欺诈，rip-deal，祖父母骗局和浪漫骗局。通过分析这些不同的骗局，可以详细说明欺诈互动和欺诈知识的基本方面。此外，这揭示了信任和欺骗是如何在日常生活中产生的基本现象。

The research project explores the phenomenon of criminal fraud from a sociological perspective. It focuses on common and widely used 'scams and schemes'. These scams and schemes address choreographed procedures, through which people are deceived to trustfully grant someone access to their individual assets. Many of these scams are being used successfully for a long time. They are proven and convincing forms of deception. This makes them an interesting research topic for exploring two understudied aspects of this phenomenon: First to look into the question of how trust and deception are created when scams are executed in concrete interactions and second to pursue the matter of how fraudsters acquire the necessary knowledge to do so and how this knowledge is shaped and transferred. These issues are investigated in a qualitative study in the course of which explorative interviews, with actors involved in fraudulent activities as 'offenders', as 'victims' and as 'police investigators', are conducted. This data will be supplemented with document analyses of criminal files. The research project focusses on typical scams like fake credit lines and loans, investment fraud, rip-deal, grandparent scam and romance scam. By analyzing these different scams, basic aspects of fraudulent interactions and fraud-knowledge can be elaborated. Moreover this reveals the basic phenomenon of how trust and deception are created in daily life interactions.
