contents It is well documented that criminals use IoT devices to facilitate crimes. The review process follows a systematic approach with a clear search strategy, and study selection strategy. The review included a total of 543 articles and the findings from these articles were synthesised through thematic analysis. Identified security attacks targeting consumer IoT devices include man-in-the-middle (MiTM) attacks, synchronisation attacks, Denial-of-Service (DoS), DNS poisoning and malware, alongside device-specific vulnerabilities. Besides security attacks, this review discusses mitigations. Furthermore, the literature also covers crime threat scenarios arising from these attacks, such as, fraud, identity theft, crypto jacking and domestic abuse.
