Abstract(s)
Os crimes de teor informático e online aumentaram exponencialmente devido ao confinamento social, decorrente do eclodir da pandemia de COVID-19. Este aumento deveu-se à necessidade das pessoas se manterem conectadas ao mundo e de alguns negócios resistirem à crise. Recorrer ao cibermundo foi a estratégia utilizada por indivíduos para fazer compras online ou perpetrarem crimes inerentes à Internet e à informática.
O presente projeto pretende expor o conceito do cibercrime, mais concretamente das burlas informáticas/online, de modo a compreender de que forma são perpetrados estes crimes e porque aumentaram com o aparecimento da pandemia que assolou o mundo, em 2020. Mediante uma proposta de intervenção apoiada num método qualitativo, é esperado a realização de entrevistas a profissionais da área da criminologia e/ou direito, com o intuito de compreender quem são os possíveis envolvidos nestes crimes e quem tem mais probabilidade de se tornar vítima. Para além disso, intenta-se perceber o que um criminólogo faz nestes casos, a nível de prevenção e/ou intervenção, como também compreender os aspetos a ser melhorados para evitar vitimação e a perpetração de burlas informáticas.
Computer and online crimes have increased exponentially due to social confinement, stemming from the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic. This increase was due to the need for people to stay connected to the world and for businesses to face the crisis. Log onto the cyberworld was the strategy used by individuals to make online purchases or perpetrate crimes inherent to the Internet and computing. This project aims to expose the concept of cybercrime, more specifically online/informatic scams, to understand how these crimes are perpetrated and why they have increased with the onset of the pandemic that devastated the world in 2020. Through an intervention proposal supported by a qualitative method, it is hoped to conduct interviews with professionals in the area of criminology and/or law, in order to understand who, the possible participants in these crimes are and who is more likely to become a victim. In addition, we intend to understand what a criminologist does in these cases, in terms of prevention and/or intervention, as well as to understand the aspects to be improved to avoid victimization and the perpetration of computer fraud.
