Foreword
Cyber crimes are one of critical issues faced
to the world. Every day we find hacking and
bait advertising emails in our inboxes. Cyber
warfare is going on between America and
China. Criminals use identity of big
corporations and banks to make money
from developing countries like Pakistan. To
curb crimes, America has established
Internet Crime Complaint Center (IC3). There
needs to be 99% awareness on cyber crimes
in Pakistan.
Pakistanis are law abiding people and have
been victimized by cyber criminals. Sajid
Imtiaz has set a world record for reporting
100 cyber crimes in eight months to IC3 and
the FBI. He has selected 25 cases for
information of police force, students and
general public. I find them factual and
informative.

Government of Pakistan must allocate funds
for victims of virus and cyber criminals. For
enhancing image of Pakistan abroad, I
request Government of Pakistan to give
befitting award to the author. Moreover, I
take this opportunity to recommend author
to submit the book as thesis for honorary
Ph.D. in criminology in any recognized
Pakistani university. Hopefully everyone will
enjoy this well composed criminology book.

opportunity as a top bank official to divert
the sum of 4.8 million to an Escrow Account
belonging to no one in the bank and then
clean up the records and files concerning
this 4.8 million from our Bank's Computerize
Data-base Processing Financial Deposit so
that there will be no trace of this fund. Now
the reason why I have contacted you is this;
the bank's management is now anxious to
know who owns this account that has this
fund (4.8 million) because the bank has
benefited and made lot of profits from this
fund for almost six years now. I need a
trustworthy and honest foreign partner that
I will present to the bank as the owner of the
account having this said fund (4.8 million).
This is how we are going to do it, you will
have to send your personal information to
me which I will have to program as the
owner of the fund (4.8 million) in our Bank's
Computerized Data-base Processing
Financial Deposit, then later you will write to
apologize to the management of the bank

and thereafter instruct the bank to transfer
the fund to you through the Automated
Transferred Money (ATM) Visa Card Account
bearing your name. So, if you are interested
kindly send the following information to me
immediately: 1). Your full name (as it is
written in your id card or passport) 2). Your
contact address with phone and fax number
3). Your age 4). Your Occupation 5). Marital
status (Married or Single)
Immediately I received this listed above
information from you, I will proceed to
program this information in our Bank's
Computerize Data-base Processing Financial
Deposit as the real owner of this fund (4.8
Million) in the Escrow Account of the bank.

Report: 11 September 2012
A World Record
100 Internet Crimes of 225 Million Dollars
Reported
Internet is necessity of life since last decade
of 2nd millennium. Chinese software
programmers have been attacking American
establishments and organizations but Beijing
was denying these charges. South Korea also
blamed Chinese criminals for virus-based
cyber attacks. United States of America has
been trying to curb cyber crimes through
different initiatives and Internet Crime
Complaint Center.
Cyber criminals have been victimizing people
of developing countries by offering rewards,
cash, business deals and misleading
advertising. They use women names and

email accounts to obtain personal
information of internet users. Sometimes
they call people from illegal telephone
exchanges. In response, some people submit
money to get lottery prizes. Criminals play
games with innocent people.
Sajid Imtiaz is first Pakistani national who
has reported 100 cyber crimes to Internet
Crime Complaint Center since August 2012
to date. These crimes are related with bait
advertising, defaming big brands and
organizations, sleeping banks’ accounts,
diplomatic bags and international
investment deals. Mostly crimes were
targeted toward Burkina Faso and United
Kingdom from email hackers. UNDP and
African Development Bank were also used
by the criminals. Investigation officers at IC3
and FBI have been able to track criminals
and shared information with respective
countries of cyber criminals. In February
2013, they found confirmed location of
hackers in outskirts of Shanghai.
While reporting crimes, knowledge of Sajid
Imtiaz also increased. He knew about huge

black money available for investment at low
markup. He was able to know about fake
online marketing companies like Six Dollar
Click and Two Dollar Click. On cyber crimes,
he wrote captivating film scripts; Total
Freedom and One. He also promoted IC3 in
digital media.
Let us be clear. It incurs time, energy and
cost (TEC) to report a cyber crime. Sajid
Imtiaz also reported crimes to Publik
Demand, a California-based organization. He
has reported crime incidents of 225 million
dollars. It is a world record and difficult to
break. U.S. Administration must give him
befitting award for persistent positive
attitude. Keeping in view TEC involved in
reporting crimes and provision of email
addresses to IC3, his award money should be
at least $100,000 along with medal and
certificate. Awards will encourage other
internet users worldwide in war against
cyber crimes. Hopefully Congressman Steve
Israel and Courtney Powell would advocate
his heroic deed.

Technology has changed life. It must be used
in court of laws and public organizations
besides on motorways. Technology can help
us curb crimes in Pakistan. Sajid Imtiaz has
also been reporting crimes to cyber crimes
wing of FIA. There must be copyright
protection police in the country to improve
soft image of Pakistan abroad.
Pakistan is a close ally of America in war
against cyber crimes. Together we can bust
cyber crimes. Still IC3 has to catch more
cyber gangs for safe surfing, e-marketing
and e-commerce. A book on cyber crimes
must be published for education of police
force and students of information
technology in Pakistan. Hopefully Pakistan
Society of Criminology and Punjab
Information Technology Board would
publish this book in 2013. According to
estimate, this book would be best seller in
Pakistan if marketed systematically.
Internet Crime Control Authority

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. By the time,
cyber crimes also increased in the world.
Sino-US cyber war is known to everyone.
America is the first country who
established Internet Crime Complaint
Center (IC3). Daily more than 200
complaints are registered with the IC3.
Criminals are detected and their
information is shared with their
respective governments.
Rich PTC and Six Dollar Clicks wasted
time, energy and money of internet
users worldwide. There still remains an
important issue that is compensation to
cyber crimes victims. So far IC3 is unable
to provide compensation to cyber crime
victims. This issue was highlighted by
several writers.

Pakistan is also against cyber crimes.
Federal Investigation Authority has
formed cyber crimes wing to control the
crimes in the country. It is trying to
provide compensation to cyber crime
victims.
Today internet users need Internet
Crime Control Authority (ICCA) for
promotion of e-commerce and safe
surfing. ICCA must be formed as early as
possible in France or United States by
the United Nations Organization. Due
representation must be given to China,
India, France and Pakistan in ICCA.
ICCA must have offices in every
developing country. Cyber crimes must
be dealt professionally and speedily to
dispense justice. Only ICCA can avoid
ongoing cold cyber war between
America and China. Hopefully Secretary
General UNO, Ban Ki-Moon would take
affirmative action.

How to Curb Cyber Crimes
Now you are well aware of different types of
cyber crimes. You can help controlling them
by reporting to the concerned authorities.
If you receive any misleading email, without
delay report to Internet Crime Complaint
Center (IC3).
Log on to www.ic3.gov
You can also report to Cyber Crimes Wing of
Federal Investigation Authority (FIA).
Log on to www.fia.gov.pk

How to Break A World Record
Two score of Pakistani nationals have set
world records. Record setters are
respectable citizens thus very important
persons. Sajid Imtiaz has set a world record
of reporting 100 internet crimes in 8 months
to Internet Crime Complaint Center (IC3). He
has applied for Guinness World Record
certificate.
It is very easier to break the
abovementioned record. Follow the
following simple steps:

www.ic3.gov & www.fia.gov.pk
2- Keep record of your complaints

3- Share your 100 complaints record
with print and digital media
4- Make personal account at

Q- Are there cold cyber wars going on
between America & China and America &
North Korea?
Q- Are there time, energy and cost involved
in reporting internet crimes?

on cyber crimes control in Pakistan?

Q- Is this study original and of international
standard?
Q- Should this book be taught in academies
of law enforcing agencies in the world and
Pakistan?
Q- Should Sajid Imtiaz be given award for
improving image of Pakistan abroad?
