A 2021 study on fraud and the consumer experience revealed that the more consumers spend online, the more important fraud protection becomes over keeping data private. Approximately 43 percent of those surveyed who spent between 0 and 65 U.S. dollars agreed with the former statement, compared to 74 percent for those spending more than 520 dollars. Regardless of the amount purchased, less than half of consumers thought e-tailers were overly cautious about security.
