Mumbai Police for control of crimes over Internet

Mumbai Cyber Lab

Came across these links while browsing: Mumbai Cyber Lab (MCL) is a joint initiative between the Mumbai Police and NASSCOM. The Cyber Crime Investigation Cell is established by Crime Branch of Criminal Investigation Department (Mumbai). The functions of these websites include reporting cyber crimes and assisting the victims, raising general awareness about cyber crimes and collaborating with national / international security agencies so that the common user has safe internet experience.

Cyber Crime is a crime that is committed over the internet. This is what MCL says about cyber crimes and the magnitude of the menace.

It is not a surprise that Cyber Crimes like money cyber stalking, denial of service, e-mail abuse, chat abuse and other crimes are on the rise. Cyber Terrorist and cyber mafia are emerging with great force, whose activities are going to threaten the sovereignty of nations and world order.

The websites give general information for users of all categories, and describes in brief the types of cyber crimes such as hacking, child pornography, cyber stalking, software piracy, virus dissemination, Denial of Service (DOS) attacks, net extorsion, Phishing, online frauds etc. There is also a section dedicated to Indian IT Laws.

    this is in regard of millions of US Dollar property in which the the fraud party asks the victim to pay US $ 11,500 to retire the parcel which has to be carried to the victims’s address in India. The victim has been asked to submit a address proof with photograph. the fraud committing part has sent the property documents and identity proofs which are fake. Can anybody (victim) contact some appropriate investigating agency to findout these fellows. Please leave some suggestion to
