This shift has been facilitated by the proliferation of platforms such as Google, Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, and other niche social media platforms, allowing companies to reach specific audiences and market segments through targeted advertising. As ad spending on digital platforms grows, the surge in fraudulent attacks continues to boom.
