CYBER TRAP

The world may seem enormous but once we are sited in-front of the 21”
flat screen ,everything is at a grip. You want to get connected to the
whole surrounding around you and you could at a click in your
keyboard. We are glued to the virtual world around us. Not just
keeping connected to our friends but from surfing for entertainment or
news to scavenging for information-we just can’t do without the
internet. It is a media trough which each and everyone stays connected
from the world around them.
But on the flip side-they have also lead to trans-national crimes
called Cyb er-crimes. Many people have become a verdict of these crime
and most among them are young teenagers. A good part of web service is
that we can access it from any part of the globe but the sad part is
that the culprit of the Cyb er crimes could not be identified and
punished.
One of the most common Cyb er crimes is ‘hacking’. A person can
trespass a computer system which is called an illegal intrusion. They
can crack confidential information, crack company codes and even
someone’s personnel email account. They could monitor everything the
owner is performing from the machine. Its like they could keep an eye
on all activities of the user.
Different blogs containing information and opinions could be
misleading and dangerous, they might actually encourage you to do
something that proves to be harmful. Never trust someone you met
online. There are hoards of sexual perverts and after some sweet talk
they sexually molest you. There are many real-life cases where young
girls become a prey of these perverts.

Cyb er stalkers are people who follow a person’s movement across the
internet by posting messages on bulletin board frequented by the
victim, entering the chat rooms, posting ugly comments and bombarding
with e-mails. E-mail scoffing is one that appears to originate from
one source but actually has been sent from another one. It could cause
serious damage like defaming someone, obtaining someone’s personal
information or even causing monetary damage.
Uploading your pictures  on various website could have dire
consequences. Doctoring someone’s photos put up on networking
defamatory matter about someone on a website are examples of Cyb er
crimes.
It is not mandatory that everyone you come across on internet would be
a pervert but its better to be alert and take necessary steps like
reporting it to the police. Like everything else, Cyb er space do also
have its evil side and awareness is our only shelter.
