Bank robbers have a clear motivation for their crimes: money. But there are a lot of inherent risks involved with robbing banks, and, as a new study shows, not a great deal of return. In cybercrime, the motivation is the same, the rewards are huge and the risk of being caught is far lower. In the U.K. bank robbers pulled in the equivalent of about $19,800 per job. Cybercrime offers the ideal combination of low risk and potentially very high reward.
