Where there is money, there will always be criminals and illegal activity. The Internet is no exception.
In fact, this technology has spawned its own particular illegal or unethical activities.

| Credit card fraud - the customer is not present to sign a receipt. There has been a lot of publicity of credit card details being stolen. |
| Spoof sites have been created - sometimes people create an exact copy of a well known site to cause mischief or defraud genuine customers. |
| Share dealing – talking up share value on discussion groups/bulletin boards |
| Spam from companies trying to sell you unwanted goods. |
