Senior Citizen Loses 33 Thousand Dollars to a Bitcoin Scam
Agenda • Problem • What Researchers have learned • Recommendation
2
Problem
A Senior citizen loses 33 thousand dollars to a Bitcoin
scam, she was deceived and performed all the operations
recommended to her by the scammers, thus facilitating
their work (Halliwell, 2022).
3
What researchers have learned
The most critical factor in this situation is the lack of
digital literacy among the population.
4
Recommendation
To combat these types of scams, it is recommended that
additional topics related to digital literacy be included in
any training programs.

Discussion: Bitcoin Pyramid Schemes Wreak Havoc on Brazil’s ‘New Egypt’

Discussion
Traders and major corporations have disseminated a message requesting people to refer a friend to a given website or rather a platform so that they can earn some money from every successful referral. Bitcoin is a risky business, as any other business, and those online traders may know today. Bitcoin pyramid schemes are full of fraudulent activities that schemers use to get money from people by offering incentives to recruiters who bring in new members into the scheme. For example, Bitcoin investors are at risk of losing their money in the blockchain environment (Boylan and Hull, 2022). The advancements in technology have enhanced trade and transactions as well as investment in the form of cryptocurrency. Dealing with cryptocurrency has its benefits and challenges just as dealing with any other business. A lot of people are venturing into cryptocurrency as it seems convenient, not knowing that they are creating weak links for attackers to penetrate and fraud them from their unsecured funds (BBC News, 2022). Law enforcement is doing all it can to minimize fraud in the business of cryptocurrency. The law protects those who are potential victims of theft in fraud in cryptocurrency. Therefore, organizations need to understand the problems of bitcoins so that they protect the finances of the clients who invest in cryptocurrency.
Mitigation
The increasing investment by people in the line of cryptocurrencies, such as bitcoin, has resulted in numerous risks of losses. For example, Zhang et al., (2021) conducted research on a traditional investment scam known as the Ponzi scheme. Clients are unaware that investing in numerous Ponzi Schemes put their money at high risk of loss. The research proposed system of detecting Ponzi Schemes has been put into use today by several professionals. This system uses a smart contract Ponzi scheme identification method that is based on the lightGBM algorithm. The experiments that were conducted by Zhang et al., (2021) gave datasets that show that this system has an improved level of accuracy in terms of the AUC index and F-score index. Smart contract deploys a specified function that cannot be terminated manually but can terminate itself automatically, if the conditions are not met, hence a better way of detecting Ponzi Schemes. As such, organizations need to realize that the funds of investors are at risk of theft, and mitigating policies should be in place.
Recommendations
Cloud Accounting Information Systems (CAIS) are an important way of reducing fraudulent activities on data. The concept also enhances the management of information in the cloud accounting information systems, which gives the users the confidentiality of security and privacy of their data. CAIS has also helped eradicate fraud activities in the field of accounting in both private and public sectors (Al-Nsour et al., 2021). Organizations operating in bitcoin and cryptocurrency need to implement CAIS so that the finances of the investors stay secure. This CAIS system is the same as the traditional one and a lot of organizations are already including it in their work programs. The difference between the traditional one and CAIS is only that the latter is hosted on remote servers in the cloud. Hosting the information of investors on the cloud system brings the risk of theft of the funds. Technological advancement has created loopholes that online fraudsters may use to track the transaction of funds. Through such drawbacks, the thieves may direct the funds to other accounts where investors lose their money. Investors and organizations need to collaborate so that they can deal with fraudsters and their risks in the bitcoin trade. When organizations implement CAIS correctly, then the potential of securing investor funds increases. When more investors are certain that their funds are secure, then more investments are generated.

Assessment
Part One: Comparative Analysis
1. Compare and Contrast
a. Methodology
It is important to note that Boylan and Hull (2022) utilized qualitative research design to
gain more in-depth insight into how fraudulent activities manifest in accounting. However, both
T&R Staff (2022) and Associated Press (2022) are secondary sources that rely on the utilization
of primary data to make their conclusions. Therefore, the methodological comparison is greatly
different between these sources, but T&R Staff (2022) and Associated Press (2022) are similar to
each other.
b. Findings
Both T&R Staff (2022) and Associated Press (2022) find that there is a substantial risk
behind cryptocurrencies due to the potential of fraudulence and volatility if left unregulated.
However, all three sources (Boylan & Hull, 2022; T&R Staff, 2022; Associated Press, 2022)
recognize the great opportunity offered by block chain technology, which is increased
accountability.
c. Recommendations
The study (Boylan & Hull, 2022) suggests using block chain technology to improve
accountability and recommends its use to combat fraudulent activities. However, both T&R Staff
(2022) and Associated Press (2022) acknowledge that there are risks associated with the current
state of cryptocurrencies, which is why they suggest adopting the technology but not the existing
forms of electronic money.
Part Two: Review
2
Fraud and Block Chain
Fraudulence is a core problem in accounting and finance overall, which has ethical,
economic, and legal implications. Boylan and Hull (2022) assert that prevention of fraud is
impossible to prove, and fraudulent activities can be reduced through the use of automatic
identification system (AIS) systems. In contrast, T&R Staff (2022) claims that the wild volatility
of cryptocurrencies makes them unappealing as a solution to the issue. Similarly, such currencies
carry their own host of fraudulence, such as pyramid schemes (Associated Press, 2022). In other
words, electronic solutions are possible, but the existing ones are problematic.
Accountability Through Block Chain
It should be noted that fraudulence in finance is best combatted through transparency,
accountability, and openness. Recent developments in money and payment methods, such as
instant payment systems and stable coins, are two examples of innovations that have the
potential to have far-reaching implications. It is reported that there are five technological systems
that can help in the improvement of the accounting role (Boylan and Hull, 2022). According to
Boylan and Hull (2022), the use of block chain can improve accountability, which leads to a
reduction in the rate of fraudulent activities. Similarly, cryptocurrencies can help ordinary
