Akshay Kumar’s appeal to the Maharashtra government said the daughter happily stopped the match immediately and told her mother Twinkle Khanna. The actor said: “This is where cybercrime begins.” After this incident, Akshay Kumar made a special appeal to the Maharashtra government. He said that every school in the state should have a ‘cyber period’ from the 7th to the 10th standard each week. In this, children must be taught which threats in the internet and game world have been hidden, and how can they be avoided. Akshay said: “Today, cybercrime has become a major threat to crimes on the roads. It is very important to make us aware of keeping children safe.” How do cyber criminals fall children? Blackdown:- Online swenders often get children on a dangerous link by attracting cheat code or shortcut in games. With these links, spyware is installed at mobile devices and criminals gain access to the entire phone. With this they steal photos, chat and banking details and then begin to blackmail. For example, a student of the sixth class in Lucknow lost Rs 14 Lakh from his father’s account in online game. He later committed suicide for shame and fear. Also in Indore, a student of the 7th gave his life due to similar extortion. Grooming:- Criminals are friends with children in games and voice channels. By slowly winning the trust, they put the children under pressure to share their personal photos or videos. NCRB reports show that 4199 cases were registered in the year 2023 across the country in which children were made victims of care and exploitation. Why is awareness important? The way of cyber criminals is very cleverly trapped. They first make friendship and then force them to provide personal information about children through greed or threatening. Therefore, parents should watch and chat the online games of children and explain it from time to time about internet security.
