Subscribe/Renew Journal
Recent years have seen a massive increase in the number of online social networks such as MySpace, Face book, Twitter etc., by which people are getting connected easily often with their friends and relatives and their well wishers too. This rapid growth of online social networks has also resulted in increased criminal activities such as phishing, spoofing, cyber stalking, net banking frauds etc. We have reviewed a standard investigation model that is used to investigate these online social network crimes. And here we are proposing to investigate offences committed in social networks by implementing the reviewed investigation model. Further the investigation is carried out by implementing some real time cases related to crimes such as cyber stalking, net bank frauds. This investigation process is carried out with the help of forensic tools. Countermeasures for the abovementioned crimes are discussed with relevant IT Act and Indian penal sections.
