Center blocks 17,000 WhatsApp accounts of hackers from South-East Asia
About 45 percent of cyber-financial fraud in India comes from locations in Southeast Asia. These crimes have become more complex and larger, costing victims a lot of money. I4C has taken several steps to prevent damage to the infrastructure used by hackers. Its investigation has revealed that cyber criminals dupe people into giving money by luring them with investment opportunities, games, dating apps and fake trading platforms. It is notable that Indian teenagers and young adults have been duped into going to Cambodia in search of work, but have been forced to commit cyber crimes there. Indian nationals protesting in a Cambodian city were arrested and steps were taken to send them back home and keep them safe.
I4C focuses on tackling all cyber crime related issues for citizens, including improving coordination between various law enforcement agencies and stakeholders, bringing about a transformation in India's overall capacity to tackle cyber crime and improving citizen satisfaction levels. Involves making improvements. The Indian Cyber Crime Coordination Center scheme was approved on October 5, 2018. Since its implementation, it has worked towards enhancing the collective capacity of the nation to combat cyber crimes and develop effective coordination among law enforcement agencies.
