Abstract :
During the past years, the Internet has evolved into the so-called “Web 2.0”. Nevertheless, the wide use of the offered Internet services has rendered individual users a potential target to cyber-criminals. The paper presents a review and analysis of various cyber crimes and compares these findings to those of our previous work. The presented results cover all the cases that were reported to the Cyber Crime and Computer Crime Unit of the Greek Police Force.
