Cyber victims interviewed said to think of their perpetrators as friends

Parents are beginning to worry about a new enemy – the cyber criminals. These criminals no longer lurk around in the school premise, they exist predominantly online. According to a study by Rochester Institute of Technology, 59% of cyber victims interviewed said that their perpetrators are a “friend” whom they know personally. And that perpetrator is significantly more likely to be a student than an adult. Parents are beginning to worry as more children are spending more time online in the cyberspace. They have no control over who are the people they interact with online.
