In 2003, the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) commissioned a survey of consumer experiences involving fraud to learn more about the types and extent of fraud perpetrated on United States consumers. Results of this survey were published in 2004. In 2005, the FTC conducted a second survey of consumer fraud. This report details the results of the survey. Figures, tables, and appendixes
