Fraud crimes are the most common type of criminal case in Korea.

In 2018, the number of fraudulent crimes totaled 270,000 and the damage amounted to 2 trillion won.

In recent years, crimes similar to those of conventional frauds are on the rise.

The crime of 'body camping' is one of the new types of cyber crimes, and the number of victims is rapidly increasing from teenagers to middle-aged and senior citizens.

To briefly look at the techniques of body camping, most of the cases are done using SNS or random chat.

Criminals who steal someone else's photos send messages that contain sexually explicit content. If the victim responds, they suggest a video chat to induce obscene behavior.

Afterwards, it asks for the installation of a specific file, such as asking to skip to a specific app or hearing no sound, and the personal information stored in the victim's smartphone is transmitted as soon as the file is read.

Intimidators who have their contacts and videos will send a threat message that money is required to delete the video.

Most victims meet the demand for money because they talk about their work, school, and acquaintances.

However, even if they meet the demand, additional money will be added, which will eventually damage the spills.

In this regard, the official of 'Picaka' said, “When you are faced with body camping, you need to find an expert and respond quickly to prevent the spread of the damage.”

In the meantime, Mompika brings together thousands of members who are currently intimidating victims, past victims and security experts.

They continue to be active in providing body prevention methods, sharing their damages and responding methods.
