In 2010, the Cybercrime Combat Department of the Romanian Police General Inspectorate has recorded 828 new cases of fraud by electronic payment means, of which 147 have ended up in the prosecution of 616 people who have committed 1,239 offenses, according to the data presented at the Anti-Fraud Forum, cited by the Romanian news agency actmedia.eu reports.

Driven by the negative impact of cybercrime on the countrys economic activity, the Association of Certified Fraud Examiners has been founded in 2010 in partnership with the Romanian Banking Association (RBA).

The Anti-Fraud Forum has taken place on 16 June 2011 and has focused on online fraud prevention and fraud patterns.
