5 Online Crimes You May Commit Unknowingly


#1 Giving wrong details:

It is common that when you go to cyber café, the executive may ask to write your mobile number in the log. Since you think that you may be bugged by pesky calls or may face other unpleasant experience, you end up jolting some random number, and the number could be active and belong to someone.  Mayur Joshi, CEO, Indiaforensic, and Cyber expert, says, though this may seem like no intention to cause damage to other person, but unknowingly you are actually committing a crime; so you can simply exit the website or provide right details just not to land yourself in hot soup.

#2 Impersonation:

It is when you try pretending to be someone else online. According to Joshi it’s a very common thing among teens to create fake email IDs or even fake profiles on social networking sites, but then it’s considered to be crime even if motive is to pull a prank on your pals.
