Cases nearly triple in three years, while financial losses quadruple

- P THIRUSELVAM @Tiruchy

CYBERCRIME is rising alarmingly in Tiruchy, particularly in rural areas, with both the number of cases and financial losses climbing sharply.

Cybercrime police sources say a total of 2,200 cases were reported in the rural district in 2024, resulting in financial losses to the tune of ₹12 crore. The trend shows no sign of slowing, as the first two months of 2025 alone have seen 500 cases and losses to the tune of ₹5 crore.

This represents a 22% rise in case volume and a 41% increase in financial losses compared to 2024.

Rural areas of the district have become a significant hotspot for cyberfraud, with a steady year-on-year increase in cases and monetary damage.
