Benewens die wyses om rekenaarmisbruik by wyse van remedies in die siviele reg aan te spreek, is dit hoofsaaklik die taak van die strafreg om sodanige misbruik te kriminaliseer en deur middel van straf sulke misbruik te voorkom en oortreders af te skrik. Uit 'n ontleding van die Suid-Afrikaanse strafreg het dit geblyk dat bestaande misdrywe, beide gemeenregtelik en statuter, nie voldoende rekenaarmisbruik kan kriminaliseer en aanspreek nie. Wetgewing blyk die mees gepaste optossing te wees. Uit 'n regsvergelykende studie van die hantering van rekenaarmisbruik in jurisdiksies waar die wetgewer verskillende benaderings toegepas het, het dit geblyk dat die mees gepaste wyse om rekenaarmisbruik te kriminaliseer sal wees om ongemagtigde rekenaarbetreding as moedermisdaad te bestraf aangesien dit die fondament is waarop enige verdere misbruik van 'n rekenaar gebaseer word. Daarbenewens moet verdere meer spesifieke misbruikshandelinge wyd omskryfword as misdrywe, ten opsigte van meer emstige misbruik na betreding van 'n rekenaar / Parallel with the growth in computer technology and increasing use of computers, there has been an increase in computer misuse. In addition to addressing different methods of computer misuse in terms of civil law remedies, it is mainly the task of the criminal law to criminalise such misuse, prevent computer misuse and deter offenders by means of punishment. It was clear from a study of South African criminal law that existing offences, both statutory and in terms of the common law, do not criminalise and address computer misuse effectively.

3	Aspects of money laundering in South African law Van Jaarsveld, Izelde Louise 04 1900 (has links) Money laundering involves activities which are aimed at concealing benefits that were acquired through criminal means for the purpose of making them appear legitimately acquired. Money laundering promotes criminal activities in South Africa because it allows criminals to keep the benefits that they acquired through their criminal activities. It takes place through a variety of schemes which include the use of banks. In this sense money laundering control is based on the premise that banks must be protected from providing criminals with the means to launder the benefits of their criminal activities. The Financial Intelligence Centre Act 38 of 2001 (‘FICA’) in aggregate with the Prevention of Organised Crime Act 121 of 1998 (‘POCA’) form the backbone of South Africa’s anti-money laundering regime. Like its international counterparts FICA imposes onerous duties on banks seeing that they are most often used by criminals as conduits to launder the benefits of crime. In turn, POCA criminalises activities in relation to the benefits of crime and delineates civil proceedings aimed at forfeiting the benefits of crime to the state. This study identifies the idiosyncrasies of the South African anti-money laundering regime and forwards recommendations aimed at improving its structure. To this end nine issues in relation to money laundering control and banks are investigated. The investigation fundamentally reveals that money laundering control holds unforeseen consequences for banks. In particular, a bank that receives the benefits of crimes such as fraud or theft faces prosecution if it fails to heed FICA’s money laundering control duties, for example, the filing of a suspicious transaction report. However, if the bank files a suspicious transaction report, it may be sued in civil court by the customer for breach of contract. In addition, if the bank parted with the benefits of fraud or theft whilst suspecting that the account holder may not be entitled to payment thereof, it may be sued by the victim of fraud or theft who seeks to recover loss suffered at the hand of the fraudster or thief from the bank. Ultimately, this study illustrates that amendment of some of the provisions of South Africa’s anti-money laundering legislation should enable banks to manage the aforementioned and other unforeseen consequences of money laundering control whilst at the same time contribute to the South African anti-money laundering effort. / Criminal and Procedural Law / Mercantile Law / LL.D.
