A new Canadian survey suggests fraud risk may be rising, with many respondents reporting behaviours that could make them more vulnerable to scams. The poll, commissioned by TD and conducted by Leger, finds that nearly one-quarter of respondents say they or a family member have been the victim of financial fraud or scams within the past year. The survey also reports that about half of Canadians encounter scams or other fraudulent attempts, and a majority indicate behaviours that increase their exposure or susceptibility. While specific fraud types are not detailed in the provided excerpts, the findings are presented as an indicator of growing exposure to fraud attempts and a need for greater awareness and protective practices. The results are based on responses from survey participants collected by Leger for TD. Overall, the coverage from multiple outlets frames the survey as measuring both recent victimization and self-reported behaviours linked to fraud vulnerability.
