Abstract

This article proposes an interdisciplinary analysis of the evolution of digital fraud in Brazil, highlighting the impact of new technologies, the role of artificial intelligence, changes in the profile of victims, and recent institutional responses. The choice of topic seeks to broaden the academic debate, bringing relevant reflections to the Public Prosecutor's Office, financial institutions, public managers, and society as a whole, especially in light of the challenges posed by digital transformation and the increasing sophistication of property crimes. We believe that the content can contribute to improving prevention strategies, digital education, and public policies, strengthening institutional action and the protection of citizens.
