KUALA NERUS: Almost RM600 million in losses were recorded throughout 2022 as a result of cybercrime in the country, said Deputy Communications and Digital Minister Teo Nie Ching.

She said the data shows that the problem of cybercrime in this country is quite serious and the Communications and Digital Ministry (KKD) will focus on educating the public to become more digitally literate and not become victims.

She added that one of the steps that will be implemented is working with social media platform providers such as TikTok in promoting the Stop For Three Second programme that will be launched in February and March.

“The ‘three seconds’ here is to help the community to think first whether any information received is authentic or not,” she said.
