On July 4, many users of Runet (Russian Internet) received an e-mail that their Yandex-money account was blocked allegedly sent by Yandex officials. Webplanet workers received the message too. It was proposed to enter the website ww.money.yandex.ru and enter personal data used to access the payment system to unblock accounts. The fraudulent message and fake website were designed in Yandex corporate style. Though some symbols were distorted in the e-mail. Thus the message looked like unkempt and doubtful. Dp.ru informs that only one user took the bait. He entered login and password at the fake website. After turning to security service of Yandex-money the account was blocked, scam artists did not managed to get the money. Most of 24 fraudulent websites were closed. Now Yandex works on shutting down the rest and collects the evidence on scams to bring it to law enforcement What are the most topical problems in the sphere of computer crime? I will underline that almost all crimes, even general crimes are revealed with our help. It is possible to say that we are in the front row of fight against crime, we carry out innovative work for criminal police. At this, all special technical measures are conducted in strict accordance with law, without infringing rights and liberties of citizen. In regard to crimes in the sphere of information technologies, 15 thousand of computer crimes were filed in the last year, 8400 crimes were registered in the first half of 2006. Late in 1990s were revealed 10-12 crimes annually, those crimes were mostly rowdy. Now two thirds of them are related to stealing information and unauthorized access to this information. What cybercrimes are committed most often? - Extremely variable computer scams: fake proposals of goods and services, hacker attack services, scams related to payment cards and accounts of electronic payment systems. 450 crimes were countered last year. 43% of victims are users of online auctions who prepay very low price goods. The other crimes are related to so-called black brides. Such crime was revealed by our officers this spring. Group of fraudsters on behalf of a girl-inhabitant of Yoshkar-Ola engaged a messaging with a German engineer who searched for a bride on the Internet. Scam artists sent a picture of a famous ballet dancer Anastasiya Volochkova. They using different pretexts fished 26 thousand EUR out of the future groom. Then the bride vanished. After the engineer informed the local department “K”, the group of nine scam artists was revealed. The number of fake deals through the Internet shops is growing, where the payment is processed by the systems of WebMoney. New methods of electronic What does the term cyberterrorism mean? First of all we mean use of Internet to recruit new members, placing information targeted on stirring up national hatred and racial intolerance. Mostly support of terrorist and extremist websites is carried out from abroad. 85% of such resources are not within Russia. It is very easy to create a website in any country. It takes about 50 minutes and some money. It is possible to register the website at any name and to place on it any information. For example it is possible to find websites offering hitman services, saying nothing of ways to produce drugs and bombs. How to fight it? Unfortunately, there are some problems with law in this sphere. Today there are no rules on placing information on the Internet. If we find terrorist and extremist websites in Russia we turn to ISPs warn them and ask to take measures to restrict access to such data. Usually ISPs do it, therefore our bureau obtains necessary means to block such websites, but there is no law prescribing such procedure. In this relation the agency’s hands are tied. However we introduced a row of legal initiatives concerning similar problems to the State Duma, with which we tightly cooperate. I won’t dwell on them, let me bring only few offers. For example we would like to exclude anonymity when signing agreements on telecommunication services with ISPs. Besides according to the Communication Law of the Russian Federation, the agreement should contain an obligatory clause prescribing that the ISP may unilaterally terminate an agreement basing on the motivated written ruling of law enforcement. Fight with cybercrime means tight international cooperation, doesn’t it? Undoubtedly, the pledge of successful disclosure of such crimes in relation to their international character, speed of evidence existence is a timely exchange of information. In 1998 a special communication unit to exchange information with other countries was created at the Bureau. It works 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Officer of the special unit from the one country may at any time of the day communicate with the same unit in other country and obtain or give data necessary for investigation. These units work in 45 countries and their number will grow. Their efficiency is proved by numerous successful joint disclosures. A case in Irkutsk is the latest example. A criminal group placed child porn on the web.
