Abstract
The study investigated the impact of cyber fraud on the dignity of labour in contemporary Nigerian society: A case study of Oredo Local Government Area, Edo State. To achieve the purpose of the study, six (6) research questions were raised and answered. The sample size for this study consisted of one hundred (100) respondents. The data collected was analyzed using frequency count and simple percentage. The study revealed that cyber fraud has a significantly negative influence on students’ career ambitions, motivation for education, and adherence to professional ethics. It was concluded that participation in and admiration for cyber fraud significantly undermine the societal value and respect for honest labour among youths in Oredo Local Government Area. The study recommended among others that law enforcement agencies should be adequately equipped and trained to detect, investigate, and prosecute cyber fraud cases swiftly and fairly, ensuring that the consequences of such crimes serve as a deterrent.
