The cybercrime division of Delhi Police is alerting the general public to not fall for fake or malicious websites related to the coronavirus disease. Delhi Police tweeted a list of “potentially dangerous domains” and requested people to not open them.
With the total number of confirmed cases of Coronavirus disease (COVID 2019) across India now standing at 727 as of March 26, people have been taking precautionary measures to contain the spread of the disease. As the government assures that there is no need for panic at all, cyber criminals have found this crisis as the right opportunity to exploit internet users.
Coronavirus related scams, phishing websites and spam messages have increased greatly. Recently, a cybersecurity firm named Recorded Future, reported a similar list of coronavirus related scam websites.
