Using puzzle-based gameplay, Fraud Tycoon takes you behind the scenes of criminal organizations that prey on online businesses that have vulnerable security. Developed in conjunction with fraud prevention company Kount, Fraud Tycoon asks players to step into the shoes of a criminal and compete for the fake currency "Bytecash" to purchase stolen credit cards and actual fraud-enabling tools to build your criminal enterprise. While the credit cards, identities and retailers are fictional, the elements of Fraud Tycoon are designed to educate the public about the tools fraudsters use to commit crimes that impact businesses, consumers and our economy.
