4. Internet Crimes
Internet is the greatest invention of 20th
century. Today there
are over 1 billion internet users worldwide. E-commerce, e-
banking and e-marketing are new domains of knowledge and
business. Internet crimes have also increased in the world.
Criminals use email accounts of Gmail, Hotmail and Yahoo.
Pirated software operated computers become easy prey of
internet criminals.
Rich PTC and Six Dollar Clicks wasted time, energy and money
of internet users worldwide. Some Pakistanis also became
victims of Rich PTC. There still remains an important issue
that is compensation to cyber crimes victims. So far IC3 and
the FBI are unable to provide compensation to crime victims.
This issue has been highlighted by several writers.
Sino-US cyber war is known to every educated person.
American organizations became target of hackers and cyber
criminals. America is the first country who established
Internet Crime Complaint Center (IC3). Daily more than 200
complaints are registered with the IC3. Criminals are
scientifically detected and their information is shared with
their respective governments.
There is much need of Internet Crime Control Authority
(ICCA) to dispense justice to criminals and victims. Pakistan is
in favor of ICCA and hopefully ICCA would be established in
2013.

5. Internet Crime Control Authority
Today internet users need Internet Crime Control Authority
(ICCA) for growth of e-commerce and safe surfing. Internet
hegemony of America must be controlled and changed. ICCA
must be formed as early as possible in Paris or New York by
the United Nations Organization. Due representation must
be given to China, India, France and Pakistan in ICCA.
Cyber crimes must be dealt professionally and speedily to
dispense justice. Criminals must be fined and sent behind the
bar whereas victims must be duly compensated.
There are still pending some cases like Botnet Butterfly virus.
Only ICCA can avoid ongoing cold cyber war between
America and China. Hopefully Secretary General UNO, Ban Ki-
Moon would take affirmative action in great global interest.
Composition of ICCA
All member states of UNO are members of ICCA. Executive
Committee comprises of ten member countries would select
the President or Secretary General for one year. President
would call general meetings at least once a year. ICCA must
have regional offices in every continent or as desired by the
member states. Countries would recommend professionals
for the Executive Committee for one year or more.

6. Role and Responsibilities of ICCA
Planning to fix objectives and devise effective mechanism for
internet/cyber crimes control in the world
Hearing criminal cases and awarding fines or punishments
Advocating use of secure technologies and software in
member states in collaboration with big data companies like
Gmail and Hotmail
Ensuring competent human resources in head office and
regional offices to achieve the desired objectives
Coordinating and leading cyber crimes controlling
organizations like Internet Crime Complaint Center and
Interpol
Providing state of the art training to ICCA police in member
states
Raising awareness on cyber crimes control and intellectual
property rights in member countries
Awarding punishments and fines to internet/cyber criminals
and ensuring enforcement of laws and regulations
Compensating internet/cyber crime victims in the world
Avoiding cyber warfare among member countries

7. Compensation to Internet Crime Victims
Criminals have been defaming Burkina Faso and big
companies like Gmail and Hotmail. Internet Crime Control
Authority must serve as a supreme judicial body and hear
appeals of criminals. ICCA must also collect fines from cyber
or internet criminals and distribute money to victims
according to the damages.
Compensatory money to victims must be distributed through
respective governments. Compensatory money can be
distributed directly to the victims.
ICCA Police
ICCA should form its police for law enforcement and
investigation of internet crimes. ICCA Police would be a
distinctive force and work according to laws of respective
governments. ICCA Police force would enjoy diplomatic
immunity under UN laws.
Interpol in Paris is already working to catch criminals.
Keeping in view growth in internet users and smartness of
cyber criminals, there must be a specialized police force i.e.
ICCA Police.

8. Economic Benefits of ICCA
ICCA would provide administrative and law enforcing job
positions at least to 5000 persons. Only China and India
would hire 2000 persons for ICCA Police. ICCA will award
fines and punishments to criminals besides compensation to
internet crime victims.
General public, government organizations and businesses
would be able to enjoy e-commerce, e-marketing and e-
banking besides safe and secure surfing.
One can state that ICCA would help increasing 1% of global
economy in the first two years.
Internet Crime Control in USA
Hotmail, Gmail and Yahoo are aware of the fact that internet
criminals use their email accounts. They have been taking
measures against criminals by cooperating with Internet
Crime Complaint Center (IC3). So far they are unable to
restrain internet criminals. Microsoft has been advocated for
genuine software.
IC3 and the FBI have substantial information about
techniques used by internet criminals. Reports can be read at
www.ic3.gov and www.fbi.gov

9. Internet Crime Control in Pakistan
Pakistan is a developing country and internet users are
increasing every year. Internet users in Pakistan also receive
unsolicited emails in their junk box. Some emails contain
virus. There remains potential threat of virus activation. On
Independence Day and Defence Day, websites are hacked
every year. We see Indian flags on these sites.
Government of Pakistan has set up Ministry of Information
Technology for offering safe surfing to internet users. Federal
Investigation Authority has established cyber crime wings.
They receive complaints and investigate these scientifically.
So far nothing big internet crime has reported by the FIA.

10. Survey on ICCA

Pakistanis in April 2013 and they supported the formation of
ICCA.
