Shortened Abstract (Tailored to the Combined Title) > *Digital banking has revolutionized financial access but has simultaneously exposed consumers to increasingly sophisticated cybercrimes, including impersonation and "digital arrest" scams. This paper provides a general, cross-jurisdictional analysis of institutional accountability in the era of digital fraud. It examines the legal principles governing banks' duty of care, the technological capabilities available for proactive fraud detection, and the regulatory frameworks needed to ensure compensation for victims. The paper argues that financial institutions must transition from treating cybercrime as a customer problem to adopting real-time, AI-driven surveillance and intervention strategies. It concludes that a multi-stakeholder approach—combining legal accountability, technological innovation, and public education—is essential for securing the digital economy and preserving public trust.* --- Would you like me to generate a **table of contents**, a **figure/table list**, or a **presentation outline** based on this title set?
