3) CONTANT IN BOOK: - Computer Frauds and Cyber Crimes are a classic example of
how digital technology can provide new dimensions to traditional crimes and make them more
sophisticated. With ever-increasing reliance on digital technology, the number of digital crimes
has been growing exponentially. Lack of public awareness of the potential misuse of digital
technology is further fuelling the growth of these crimes. There is very little reliable information
available to help people understand the dangers associated with digital technology. This book is
an attempt to fill this gap. Envisaged as a ready reckoner, it will help readers safeguard
themselves against computer frauds and cyber crimes. With relatable stories, revealing facts, and
incisive insights, Cyber Unsafe busts the myths surrounding digital technology and related
