|April 07, 2025
Cases nearly triple in three years, while financial losses quadruple
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.
