Social Networking as a Criminal Enterprise

By George Higgins

As social networking continues to evolve and expand, the opportunities for deviant and criminal behavior have multiplied. With contributions from experts in the field of cybercriminality, this book explores the emergence of social networking and how it has led to new forms of criminality. Supplying relevant statistics and legislative histories, it discusses the types of crimes committed and how the system is handling these offenders. The book presents discussion questions at the end of each chapter to encourage critical thinking and includes case studies to clarify content.
