Interior Minister Mohsin Naqvi has urged women not to share their photographs under any circumstances, as cybercrime incidents continue to rise. Speaking to journalists during an open court at the National Cyber Crime Investigation Agency (NCCIA) in Lahore, he said the agency was receiving the highest number of cases involving harassment of girls.
Warning over online money requests and fake accounts
Naqvi also cautioned the public against transferring money to people who request it online. He said people should not send money even when someone claims to be sick and needs financial help.
The minister further said that people had created fake social media accounts to swindle money from others.
Staffing and awareness plans for the agency
The government is working to ensure the NCCIA has adequate staff to handle people who approach it, Naqvi said. An awareness campaign for girls and the general public is also being planned.
