Nearly 60 per cent of financial losses suffered by cybercrime victims in Telangana are linked to stock market and investment frauds, Cyber Security Bureau Director Shikha Goel said. She warned of sophisticated international networks and urged citizens to remain cautious.

During the first three months of 2024 (From January 1 to March 31), the district recorded 1,058 cybercrime cases, with victims losing Rs.9.89 crore to cyber crooks.

“It was for the first time these cases were handled and money refunded to victims,” said the official.
