According to Mario Nawfal, there has been a surge in social media hacking in the UK, with related cases rising from 22,530 in 2023 to 35,434 in 2024. Hackers often take over social media or email accounts, impersonate users and trick their friends into providing security codes.
On-chain detective ZachXBT said that the UK has a low penalty for cybercrime, and even if fraud is reported, criminals often do not receive substantial punishment. In addition, law enforcement agencies also face resource shortages when dealing with such cases.
