The rapid growth of illegal online investment practices in Indonesia has caused significant losses to the public, both materially and immaterially. Within the framework of criminal law, the protection of victims of illegal online investment has not yet been implemented optimally, as law enforcement tends to prioritize the punishment of offenders rather than the restoration of victims’ rights. This study aims to examine the legal position of victims of illegal online investment within the Indonesian criminal law system and to analyze the forms of legal protection afforded to them. This research employs a normative legal research method using a statutory approach and a conceptual approach. The findings indicate that, normatively, victims of illegal online investment have not been fully recognized as legal subjects entitled to effective protection and recovery. In judicial practice, victims are generally positioned merely as reporters and witnesses, resulting in limited participation in the criminal justice process. Although legal provisions concerning victim protection exist, their implementation still faces various obstacles, including normative, procedural, and institutional constraints, particularly in relation to the recovery of victims’ losses. Therefore, strengthening victim-oriented legal protection is necessary to ensure that the criminal law system can deliver more comprehensive justice for victims of illegal online investment
