Synthetic identity fraud is a type of financial crime where a fraudster creates a fake identity using a combination of real and fake personal information. The fake identity is used to apply for credit, open bank accounts, or make purchases, etc. This fraud is difficult to detect because the fraudster is using a combination of real and fake information. It becomes harder for institutions to catch the fraud, and it may be more difficult for law enforcement to track the fraudsters.
