PROJECT: CYBERCRIME AND GAMBLING

YOU MAY SHARE THIS PUBLIC DOCUMENT

 

Specialised Security Services does not approve of gambling, and notwithstanding the moral discussion,

we warn against the more complex criminal risks gamblers expose themselves to.


Cybercrime in online gaming refers to various illicit activities within the gaming community, targeting players,

gaming platforms, and gaming companies. These activities include hacking, cheating, identity theft, fraud,

phishing, and malware distribution.

 

MODUS OPERANDI: 


  • Account Hacking:

  • Hackers may attempt to gain unauthorised access to players' accounts by using phishing emails, brute force attacks, or exploiting vulnerabilities in gaming platforms.

  • Cheating and Exploits:

  • Some players use cheating software or exploits to gain unfair advantages in online games, such as aimbots, wallhacks, or speed hacks.

  • Identity Theft:

  • Cybercriminals may impersonate legitimate players to steal their personal information, in-game currency, or virtual items.

  • They may also sell stolen accounts or items on black markets.

  • Fraudulent Transactions:

  • Fraudsters may deceive players into fraudulent transactions, such as purchasing fake in-game currency, virtual goods, or gaming services.

  • Phishing Attacks:

    • Players may receive phishing emails or messages containing malicious links or attachments designed to steal their login credentials or install malware on their devices.

 

SAFETY MEASURES:


  • Use Strong Passwords:

  • Create unique and complex passwords for your gaming accounts and enable two-factor authentication (2FA) whenever possible.

  • Update Software:

  • Keep your gaming software, operating system, and security software up to date with the latest patches and updates to prevent exploitation of vulnerabilities.

  • Beware of Scams:

  • Be cautious of suspicious emails, messages, or websites offering free in-game currency, cheats, or gaming services.

  • Avoid clicking on unknown links or downloading files from untrusted sources.

  • Secure Your Devices:

  • Install reputable antivirus/antimalware software on your devices and regularly scan for threats.

  • Secure your network with a firewall and avoid connecting to unsecured public Wi-Fi networks.

  • Report Suspicious Activity:

  • If you encounter suspicious behaviour or suspect that you have been targeted by cybercrime in online gaming, report it to the game developer, platform administrator, or relevant authorities.

  • Educate Yourself:

    • Stay informed about common cyber threats and scams in online gaming and educate yourself about safe gaming practices.

    • Be vigilant and share your knowledge with fellow gamers to help protect the community.

EXTREMELY IMPORTANT: All potential clients need to be aware that owing to the nature of our work as specialist investigators there are people who have been caught on the wrong side of the law - who are trying to discredit me - Mike Bolhuis and my organisation Specialised Security Services - to get themselves off the hook. This retaliation happens on social media and creates doubt about our integrity and ability. Doubt created on social media platforms is both unwarranted and untrue. We strongly recommend that you make up your minds concerning me and our organisation only after considering all the factual information - to the exclusion of hearsay and assumptions. Furthermore, you are welcome to address your concerns directly with me should you still be unsatisfied with your conclusions. While the internet provides a lot of valuable information, it is also a platform that distributes a lot of false information. The distribution of false information, fake news, slander and hate speech constitutes a crime that can be prosecuted by law. Your own research discretion and discernment are imperative when choosing what and what not to believe.


STANDARD RULES APPLY: Upon appointment, we require a formal mandate with detailed instructions. Please take note that should you not make use of our services – you may not under any circumstance use my name or the name of my organisation as a means to achieve whatever end.
