Cybercrime in your mobile
If you have a mobile then that mobile is enough to know your details. Even if you are not entered the details in your mobile still they can know. But let me clear one thing that it is legal because phones and mobiles and also sims which we are using, registered by the government. Those companies do have not any right to interfere in your personal life. And if anyone interferes in your personal life then that will be illegal and legal action can be taken against him.
To know your data and personal information without your permission is a cybercrime.
To secure your life and your data in the digital world, the following provision has been given in the IPC (Indian Panel Code) related to cybercrime.
- IPC Section 503 for sending threatening messages through email.
- IPC Section 463 for using fake electronic records.
- IPC Section 463 for stalking someone’s email.
- IPC Section 402 for using fake website
- Arms Act for online purchase and sale of weapons.
If someone spread cyber terrorism or is involved in this type of crime then he could be sentenced to life imprisonment.
