Abstract: The NCVS Supplemental Fraud Survey (SFS) is primarily an effort to measure the prevalence of personal financial fraud victimization among persons ages 18 or older, the prevalence of a range of different types of fraud, characteristics of fraud victims, and patterns of reporting to the police and consumer protection agencies. The SFS is also designed to collect important information on the consequences of fraud, including financial losses, and victims’ reactions to specific fraud victimization experiences. The 2017 administration will be the first for this data collection.
