Based on statistics created by the Telangana Cybercrime Security Bureau, approximately 35% had only completed their SSC or had dropped out previously, while another 20% had only completed their Intermediate. It turns out that over half of persons suspected of cyber fraud are not highly skilled professionals.
After examining data from 165 people it had detained nationwide over the course of six months, the bureau concluded that the remaining 45% of those engaging in cyber fraud were techies with BTech, MCA, or MBA degrees.
According to the bureau, these 165 people were wanted in 3,357 cybercrime cases nationwide and 795 instances in the state.
Additionally, the bureau reported that nearly half (49 percent) of suspects in cybercrime were between the ages of 21 and 30.
Thirty-four percent of the suspects identified as realtors, hoteliers, or company owners. The remaining individuals included quacks, cab drivers, gym trainers, event planners, digital content producers, and those working in a range of jobs, including delivery services. Other groups included government workers (3%), farmers and laborers (5%), students (9%), and the jobless (14%).
Earning easy money, having a criminal family history, having debts, and having a third party’s influence were the main reasons for their involvement, according to the bureau.
