Kompas.com uses a more preventive method by revealing the ways that the people should do to avoid these traps and fraud. The results of the analysis using the fraud hexagon theory show that fraudulent practices committed by illegal online lending companies are caused by pressure from capital owners, information technology capabilities owned, broad market opportunities, rationalization that people need fast funds, ego, and binding agreements as a form of collusion. The increasing role of the government in providing protection for the public in online transactions is an important implication of this research.
