2. What is CyberCrime?
Cybercrime, also known as computer crime, is the use of
a computer as an instrument to further illegal ends, such
as committing fraud, trafficking in child pornography
and intellectual property, stealing identities, or violating
privacy.
Cybercrime, especially through the internet, has grown in
importance as the computer has become central to
commerce, entertainment, and government.

3. What distinguishes cybercrime from
traditional criminal activity?
One difference is the use of the digital computer, but technology alone is
insufficient for any distinction that might exist between different realms
of criminal activity.
Criminals do not need a computer to commit fraud, traffic in child
pornography and intellectual property, steal an identity, or violate
someone’s privacy.
All those activities existed before the “cyber” prefix become ubiquitous.
Cybercrime, especially involving the internet, represents an extension of
existing criminal behaviour alongside some novel illegal activities.

4. Types of Cybercrime

theft, phishing or internet banking

6. A case representing
Cyber fraud

7. A 32-year-old man, who is engaged as a private security guard for
former legendary India cricketer Sachin Tendulkar fell prey to an
online scam and lost Rs 18,200.
a fraudster called him posing as an executive of Kotak Mahindra
bank at around 10 am on July 13 on his mobile phone number and
asked him if he required a loan. As the security guard was in need of
money, he agreed to take a loan.
The cyber fraudster then asked him to send details of his AADHAR
card, PAN card, debit card, and credit card on a Whatsapp number.
Accordingly, the complainant sent all the details asked by the
fraudster.

8. The fraudsters then sent him Rs 10,000 and using the security
guard’s credit card details, generated an OTP to debit Rs 18,200 from
his account.
The complainant then shared the OTP as asked by the fraudster and
Rs 18,200 got debited from his bank account.
The fraudster again called back the complainant the next day and
asked him to send Rs 10,000 as a processing fee following which Rs
1.50 lakh as the loan will be disbursed to his account.
However, the complainant realised he was being duped and
approached the Bandra Police for help.

9. Now how can we prevent
ourselves from such
scams?

10. Firstly, banks will never ask for your bank account, credit
and debit card details. If a caller represents himself as a
bank employer and asks for such details, it’s a scam.
And secondly, never share your OTP with an unknown
person and avoid sharing the same through mobile in public
areas.
