I posted an article about Cyberbullying. Now I think it's necessary and constructive to inform online users what they should do if they found they're involved in any cyberbullying event:
According to ASP Mahfuz Abd Majid of the police's Technology Crime Investigation Unit, this could be due to the problem being settled privately by the parties involved or the victims may feel that there is no significant loss (usually in monetary terms) to warrant the hassle of lodging a report.
Less than 10 per cent of breaches in Internet security made to MyCert are lodged with the police.
If you've been flamed, spammed or harassed in an online community, the experience can be terrifying or plain annoying. Here's what you can do:
1. Do not reply to spam (junk e-mail). It will confirm your e-mail address and lead more spam into your inbox.
2. Ignore the hate mails (being 'flamed') and spam as much as you can. Sometimes, all the perpetrators want is for you to respond.
3. However, once these messages start to distress you, show it to a parent. "If you think your life could be in danger, lodge a report at the nearest police station. They will then conduct an investigation," said Mahfuz.
