We had launched this toll free number on 17 December 2007 to combat cyber crime and mobile offenses.

With the increase in the number of PDA’s and mobiles, related crimes in this sector have also increased. Cyber crimes such as online fraud, phishing or even threat mails have witnessed an increase in recent time. Also mobile related offenses like unsolicited calls or pornographic MMS have made many suffer. According to Indian Computer Emergency Response Team (CERT IN) hackers had attacked around 6000 websites in the last year.

But now such sufferers can call 1800 209 6789 and seek professional and individual assistance for FREE. This number currently works only in India. But we are planning to make this number accessible worldwide.

This is our endeavor in curbing cyber crimes and making the web a safer place for everyone.
