BHOPAL: From January 1 to May 25 2022, 1,800 cyber crime cases were reported in the state capital — with the duped money amounting to Rs 7.3 crore — this is more than double the number of cases registered in 2021.
The state capital has seen an increase in cyber crime cases in 2022. Though cyber crime cases have been steadily increasing, the incidents have gone up rapidly post pandemic — over 12 cyber crime cases are reported in the city every day, with cyber criminals siphoning off Rs 5 lakh online from Bhopalis bank accounts daily.
