The crime of telecommunications fraud brings serious difficulties to the investigation as this occurs through the internet which has strong concealment and anti-reconnaissance capabilities. Only by fully understanding the root causes of telecommunications fraud crimes can effective prevention strategies be developed. This descriptive correlational study aimed to determine telecommunication fraud in China as a basis for an enhanced crime prevention strategy. Specifically, this study aimed to determine the respondents’ profile, factors supporting victimization of telecommunications fraud as to precipitating and attracting factors and impacts of telecommunications fraud. Moreover, it sought to test a significant difference in responses when grouped according to profile variables and test a significant relationship between factors supporting victimization and the impacts of telecommunications fraud. The respondents were 424 telecommunications fraud victims from Huainan City, Anhui Province. The results revealed that the majority of the respondents were female, 31 to 40 years old, with bachelor’s degrees, personnel from private institutions, and had participated in online false shopping. Respondents agreed that factors supporting victimization of telecommunication fraud include precipitating factors like venturing on online high-profit capital and attracting factors like trans regional or transnational telecommunications fraud is difficult to detect. Moreover, telecommunication fraud had negative impacts like increasing litigation by the victims, psychosocial impact on the victims like feeling stupid about the action, and positive impacts like the increase in the lawful crackdown against telecommunication fraud. There were significant differences in occupational and victimizing styles between Precipitating Factors and Attracting Factors, but there was no significant difference in victimizing styles among Attracting Factors. There is a high correlation between the factors that support victimization and the impact of telecommunications fraud. Based on the results of this study, an enhanced crime prevention strategy was crafted.
