جريمة الاحتيال الإلكتروني في إطار التجارة الإلكترونية ضمن التشريعات الأردنية

Abstract

Abstract Electronic fraud is a criminal behavior that is implemented in whole or in part by electronic means, and uses Internet components such as e-mail, chat rooms or websites, and aims to seize the money of others by fraud and deception. Accordingly, the Jordanian legislator did not criminalize electronic fraud as in the ordinary crime of fraud in the Penal Code in Article (417). However, it emphasized in Article (15) of the Electronic Crimes Law No. 27 of 2015 that any person committing any crime stipulated in Jordanian legislation by using any electronic means shall be subject to the same penalty stipulated in that legislation. Therefore, this study explains the crime of electronic fraud by clarifying its definition, characteristics, similarities and differences, and ordinary crime of fraud, then explains its pillars by clarifying its legal, material and moral pillar, and the penalties prescribed for this crime under Jordanian laws.
