Guest guest Posted September 23, 2008 Report Share Posted September 23, 2008 *Informative mail:Sleaze spreads via Cyber Space. Read and Forward to All <Hum-Our-Tum/join> <Hum-Our-Tum/join> Hyderabad, Sept. 21: A city couple recently found, to their utter shock that an MMS of video clips of them in an intimate situation were spreading through emails and SMS. Another youngster of Adilabad circulated nude pictures of his girlfriend to his friends " just for fun " but landed in the police net. These are just two instances of the various kinds of online crimes that the cyber crime cell of the AP police has to deal with. It receives an average of five complaints a month about obscene pictures alone. " Majority of the victims of such crimes are unmarried, " said inspector P. Devandar of the Cyber Crime Cell. " They do not dare to come out and lodge a complaint. " Girls who put up their photographs on social networking sites are actually running a risk. One fine day, they may find morphed nude pictures of theirs in cyber space. And if you also leave your mobile number, you will get umpteen calls from strangers seeking sexual favours. In many such complaints received by the cyber crime cell, the villains turn out to of former friends or jealous ex-lovers. And often, when police discover the culprit, he works out a compromise with the victim. But cops say that even if the offender does not repeat the crime, the clips keep on circulating. And there is nothing they can do about it. " Our advice to the public, especially to girls, is that they should not share photographs, even with friends, " said Mr Devender. " Equations between friends may change and there is a possibility that a former friend may misuse a photograph and defame you in cyber space. " And those who spread such clips need not feel that they would not be traced. " The offenders believe they can remain anonymous in any cyber space but, like in conventional crime, they leave behind evidence, " said the inspector. The cyber crime cell is also getting more complaints of hacking and phishing these days. Modern hackers are silent and stealthy and attacks are hard to detect. They don't hack just for the heck of it. They hack for money. Companies often don't know they have been attacked until a third party such as Symantec warns it. " The hackers sneak in, get away with information, and the company does not even know it, " said the inspector. In phishing attacks, hackers steal personal and financial data from computers of individuals and use them to make money. One in every 119 mails is a " phishing attempt " . They direct the users to spurious websites which demand personal data and the gullible fall for it. Awareness is the antidote in this case. " Stay away from dark alleys of Internet, and be careful what you download, " said inspector Ravi Kumar Reddy. " Make sure you have the latest security patches and never reveal your passwords. " Strangely enough, even aspirant hackers are being bamboozled. Those who go in search of free hacking tools on the Internet are often asked for the email id, password and credit card number. This is then misused. Cyber Crime sleuths say that they can do nothing against hackers who put up their tools on the Net. The only way is for the Net surfer to become aware of the booby traps in cyber space. <Hum-Our-Tum/join>* <Hum-Our-Tum/join>[image: Click here to join Hum-Our-Tum] Click here to join Hum-Our-Tum Group for Latest Breaking news and information around the world,Inspirational and Motivational mails<Hum-Our-Tum/join> *Never take some one for granted,Hold every person Close to your Heart because you might wake up one day and realise that you have lost a diamond while you were too busy collecting stones.
