The program took place in a serious yet lively and meaningful atmosphere. With the goal of raising legal awareness among students, the session focused on two highly practical and important topics:
1. Preventing Cybercrime
In the digital era, students are frequent users of the internet and social media. However, not everyone fully understands the hidden risks, especially the concept of “Online Kidnapping.”
“Online Kidnapping” is actually a form of online scam. Cybercriminals create fake situations to manipulate victims psychologically, forcing them to cut off communication with the outside world in order to threaten or extort money from their families. In reality, no real kidnapping occurs — but victims are led to believe their loved ones are in danger and rush to transfer money as requested.
Message: “Don’t stay silent – Stay connected” and “If in doubt, stop – If worried, speak up.”
During the session, lawyers shared real-life cases of online violations such as spreading false information, invading privacy, and online fraud. They also provided practical guidance on protecting personal accounts, identifying suspicious activities, and behaving responsibly online, summarized as the ‘3 DON’Ts and 3 DOs’:
3 DON’Ts
- DON’T follow secret-keeping requests
- DON’T share personal or sensitive information or photos
- DON’T click on strange links, join unfamiliar Zoom meetings, or meet strangers
3 DOs
- DO block and report immediately
- DO verify information carefully
- DO talk to family or trusted adults
