Women 'victims in most cases'About two-thirds of victims in cybercrime cases are women, the Royal Thai Police (RTP) said yesterday, urging the public to exercise extra caution when using social media and messaging apps. According to deputy RTP spokeswoman Pol Maj Gen Siriwat Deepor, national police chief Pol Gen Torsak Sukvimol is concerned about the growing number of cybercrime cases, which have caused billions of baht in losses. About 64% of the victims were females of working age, and the vast majority of the victims were aged between 22-59, Pol Maj Gen Siriwat added. She urged those who believe they have become victims of cybercrime to file a report at www.thaipoliceonline.go.th or by calling 1441 at any time, day or night. She pointed out that the RTP does not receive complaints via any mobile phone applications or social media platforms.
