1 In my opinion, the most serious cybercrime is child solicitation. It is the worst, because it concerns children, people who are very young and naive. Children do not fully understand the world around them and the dangers that are in it. Fortunately that type of cybercrime is heavily monitored by the police.
Cyberstalking and cyberbullying are also quite heavy.
No, I haven't heard of any serious cybercrimes committed recently.
2 I think people who post hateful messages online are in fact very sad. They often experience violence themselves in the real life and want to react to it somehow. And the only thing that comes to their mind is hurting other people. When I see something like that on the Internet, I always try to react to that with politeness. One kind word can work wonders.
3 It all depends on the type of crime. If you don't want to be robbed, don't leave your personal details on the Internet. If you don't want to get hacked, get yourself good antivirus software. If you know someone who is a victim of cybercrime, help them or help them find help. And of course you should report cybercrime and cybercriminals (like thieves, grifters or child abusers) to the police. And cyberbullies – don't send them horrible messages back – that won't change anything. Be kind to them – that may change something.
