Changing landscape of cybercrime in Jharkhand
Ranchi: Only a few years ago, Jamtara, a district in tribal dominated Santhal Pargana division with over 8 lakh people, emerged as the hotspot of organised cybercrimes which were committed across the country. Now, law enforcement officials in Jharkhand are trying to crackdown against cybercriminals who have changed their tactics and their base of operations by fanning out to other districts such as Deoghar, Giridih, Dhanbad, Hazaribag and Koderma and committing high-value frauds, including investment scams and digital arrests. Police investigation into reported cybercrimes in recent months have revealed that the criminals are often working for a international organised cybercrime syndicates whose handlers are sitting in China, Dubai and other southeast Asian countries. Records available with the Criminal Investigation Department (CID) said 340 cyber fraud cases were reported since January this year. Of them, 110 were which 110 were related to investment scams and seven to digital arrests. The highest number of investment scams was registered in Deoghar, with a figure of 78. In one instance, the CID's cybercrime police station registered a case on May 14 in which fraud worth Rs 1.39 crore was committed against a resident. Posing as officials from an enforcement agency, the cyber criminals made a video call to the victim and implicated him in criminal activities and money laundering. The victim was threatened with immediate digital arrest and was coerced into transferring large sums of money under psychological duress. During the investigation, CID arrested two cyber criminals, one of whom had links with a Dubai-based cybercrime syndicate. On May 5, a resident of Seraikela-Kharsawan district lodged a complaint in connection with investment fraud worth Rs 1.53 crore. The victim was enticed with an investment opportunity through a Facebook advertisement promising five times the return. He was asked to download a fake trading application via a link provided on WhatsApp and register for it. He was asked to invest in various bank accounts registered in the name of companies. The CID arrested a cyber-criminal from Hapur in Uttar Pradesh in this connection. Cyber slavery of the state's residents in Southeast Asian countries has also been reported. In August 2024, CID received a series of complaints from victims who stated they were misled with data entry jobs abroad, particularly in Cambodia, Thailand, and Laos, and were forced to work in scam centres there. Two agents, who were natives of Jharkhand, were arrested in this connection. CID officials have stated that cyber criminals in Jamtara have also changed their ways in recent years. From seeking OTPs to carry out illegal purchases, they have now switched to coding and sending APK files to victims. The fraudsters pose as customer care executives of banks and telecom companies and call victims under the pretext of KYC updates, SIM reactivation, benefits of govt schemes, or loan processing. The victims are then sent a link to download an APK file, claiming it is needed for verification. Once installed, the APK grants full access to the victim's phone using screen-sharing or remote access features, often without the user's knowledge. As the victim enters sensitive information or receives OTPs, the fraudster views them in real-time, captures login details, and performs unauthorised transactions. A significant number of job-related cyber scams are also being registered, stated CID. The modus operandi of the Chinese-based prepaid job scam involves contacting victims through platforms like Telegram, WhatsApp, and Instagram with offers of easy online tasks and daily income. The tasks include liking videos, rating hotels, or boosting app downloads. The victims are paid small sums initially to build trust but later are asked to invest (prepay) money to unlock higher-paying tasks. As victims invest more, they see fake dashboards showing profits, but withdrawals are blocked unless more is deposited. As several people in the state are offering their accounts on a commission basis to cyber frauds for the transaction of money, it has created another challenge for the police. Fake Facebook accounts and hacking, frauds in the name of cryptocurrency investment, updating of know your customer, and preventing the blocking of bank accounts and Aadhar cards are also taking place in the state. In the recent past, fake Facebook accounts have been created for Ranchi deputy commissioner (DC) Manjunath Bhajantri, Hazaribag Sashi Prakash Singh, and Dhanbad DC Aditya Ranjan. Srinivas, the deputy SP of Ranchi cybercrime police station, said, "Like the improvised explosive devices which extremists make in various ways, the cyber criminals are devising new modes of committing crimes." CID is combating the cyber criminals from various angles, from registering cases to freezing the cyber frauds' accounts and arresting them. The CID has also taken legal recourse for the return of money frozen in the banks to the victims. CID IG Asim Vikrant Minz said, "Manpower has been increased at the Dial 1930 centre so that the office is functional round the clock and ensures that no call from the victims is dropped. We have adopted a proactive method in mapping cyber criminals through the Pratibimb app and taking steps to arrest them. Jharkhand is coordinating with other states through the Indian Cyber Crime Coordination Centre in the investigation. Cases with foreign linkages are a big challenge, as even if we have the addresses of the cyber criminals abroad, there is no guarantee that all the countries would cooperate." Elaborating the way forward, Minz said the police has set up cyber police stations in 14 districts, including Ranchi, Latehar, Hazaribag, Dumka, Bokaro, Ramgarh, Chaibasa, Saraikela, Jamtara, Deoghar, Dhanbad, Jamshedpur, Giridih, and Palamu. "In other districts, there are cyber cells to receive complaints," he added. More than 1,976 cyber criminals were arrested since November 2023 using the Pratibimb app while 3,610 mobile phones and 4,924 sim cards were seized. "Awareness is key to preventing cybercrimes. The CID is conducting drives in schools, colleges, and among professionals in this regard. People should learn that greed for large profits may land them in trouble. Banks should also try to verify when an elderly person starts making transfers of huge chunks of money," he added. A cyber expert and founder of Cyber Peace Foundation, Vineet Kumar, said, "The state govt should also have a rehabilitation centre for first-time offenders to give the person a chance to reform. An initiative in this regard has been started by my organisation in Jamtara district. More needs to be done in this regard."

CYBERCRIME DGP INTERVIEW
Jharkhand's director general of police (DGP) cum director general (DG) CID speaks to TOI's Sanjay Sahay on the growing impact of cybercrime in the state and how police is working overtime to thwart it. Excerpts:- Q: What is the overall scenario of cybercrime in the state? A: Cyber frauds can be categorised into low-value and high-value crimes. The low-value crimes are taking place by persuading the victims to download APK files in the name of preventing blocking of Aadhar card, bank accounts and other pretexts. The APK files enable the cybercriminals to see the victim's personnel data, which is used for committing the fraud. These crimes are mostly taking place from within the country. The high-value crimes like digital arrests and investment frauds are mostly being carried out from outside the country. Q: What are the measures taken by CID to curb the crimes? A: The victim can lodge their complaints by dialling 1930 or through in case of a fraud. The Jharkhand police have developed a portal called Pratibimb, which has data of mobile phones used for cybercrimes across the country and their district wise locations. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Blood cancer is taking our curious baby away from us! Donate For Health Donate Now Undo The data is provided by Indian Cyber Crime Coordination Centre, a wing of Ministry of Home affairs (MHA). With the help of the data, superintendents of police are taking action against cybercriminals. Around 1,500 police officers from all over the country are also using Pratibimb. In case of cyber fraud from outside the country we can act if an Indian mobile number is involved as the person could be identified. However, if it is through a foreign number we would not know from which part of the country the criminal is making a call. We also cannot do much if it is a virtual number. Q: A large number of mule accounts in the state are helping cybercriminals sitting outside the country. What steps are being taken?. A. We have received data about many mule accounts, which are operational in Jharkhand, from Samanvaya portal of MHA and started taking action. Any person who lends his account for cybercrime on commission basis would be jailed. We have registered an FIR against 40 mule accounts having transactions of Rs 10 lakhs and above on Tuesday. Q: What measures have been taken to build infrastructure and manpower to tackle cybercrimes? A: The state govt has been very kind to us in this regard. As per Information Technology Act, only an inspector rank officer can investigate cybercrime cases. The state has, however, permitted that if the DGP desires he can take measures to allow a sub-inspector rank officer to investigate. This has addressed the manpower problem to a considerable extent. The state has also issued a special order allowing an officer air travel for bringing cybercriminals from various parts of the country. However, there is still shortage of trained people with technical knowledge to investigate the cases. We are emphasizing on on-the-job training. There are not many officers who are interested in cybercrime investigation, which is a problem.
