  • Computer Crime, or "Cybercrime" refers to a type of crime in which a computer or a computer network generally played a vital role in the commission of the crime. Cyber-criminals can use the computer to attack other people or computers, or they can simply keep illegal content on their computers. There are many categories of computer-crime, but three categories serve as the bulk of computer crimes that are committed.
  • Spamming
  • The sending of bulk Emails to a countless number of computers is known as "Spamming" and is considered illegal, depending on the country where the spanning originates from. Because spamming can be perfectly legal depending on the country, spammers are difficult to prosecute.
  • Fraud
  • Computer Fraud has many forms, including altering computer input and output, altering or deleting stored data, and altering or misusing system tools and software packages for fraudulent purposes. Additionally, computers can be misused to perform various other types of fraud, such as bank fraud or theft (of information).
  • Obscene/Offensive Content
  • Any illegal content that is stored on a computer is also considered a computer crime. While the kind of content considered "illegal" will vary from country to country,child pornography is considered illegal worldwide, and makes up the majority of this category of computer crime. Many task forces have been created across the country to deal with this specific violation.
