Humans have benefited enormously from the widespread use of computers and the internet, but some people have taken advantage of this progress in unethical ways, such as online fraud, hacking, spamming, cyber terrorism, and cyber stalking. Any crime that includes a computer and a network is referred to as cybercrime, sometimes known as computer crime. Too many people are victims of cybercrime, which has been on the rise recently. The repercussions of cybercrime may be catastrophic, including monetary loss and reputational damage as well as psychological suffering and physical pain. Most of the victims are teenagers and elderly people. As a result, awareness campaigns are necessary to stop or avoid cybercrime in India. In this paper, the current state and types of cybercrime in India is examined.
