This writing uses a qualitative approach with observation data collection techniques, documentation studies, and interviews. By using performance theory and SWOT analysis, the author found that in the process of resolving online fraud cases, there were still zero because investigators had difficulty finding the perpetrator's position and the lack of technological facilities that could support the implementation of tasks, besides that there were also inhibiting factors in handling the resolution of online fraud cases, starting from an inadequate budget and members never carrying out Specialist Development Education (Dikbangspes) related to cybercrime. Based on the author's findings, the performance of the Madiun City Police Criminal Investigation Unit in handling online fraud cases to improve case resolution was less than optimal.
