Crime › Misconceptions About Cybercriminals In Nigeria by UncleSnr(op): 3:42pm On Mar 20, 2018
https://i2.wp.com/learnvercity.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/03/cybercriminals.jpg?resize=678%2C381&ssl=1

Over the years, the movie industry has often over-simplified and romanticized the portrayal of cybercriminals. Movies undoubtedly reveal hackers to be misunderstood geniuses attempting to save the very society which ostracized them, only to be impeded by the unforgiving harsh government. Conversely, the media depicts the cyber-criminal to be an individual who does not believe in the term “free society” hence they are out to put tears in the society generally. Logically, the truth lies somewhere in between both images. Most misconceptions people have are unjustifiable. Only an iota of truth exists in them. Cybercriminals do indeed need to be very tech-smart and intelligent to commit crimes and escape scot-free. As with crimes in general, males do form the greater proportion of criminals than women. The difficulty actually lies in dealing with criminals who do not exactly fit the typical profile, easily escaping legal action.

All cybercriminals are smart but social misfits

This might have been the case during the time of the standalone computer when the programmer was usually a graduate in computing glued in front of his monitor and punching on his keyboard. He needed to be very tech-wise and possessed little time to socialize with others. Today, however, both the net and the user-friendliness of personal computers have made committing cyber crimes easy for anyone willing to learn to do so. An effective cybercriminal in the modern-day era needs to have excellent social skills and charisma in order to undertake social engineering and exploit the human aspect of encryption systems.

Teenagers with computers are all cybercriminals

The media ought to shoulder most of the blame for this stereotype. Countless movies have portrayed individual teenage boys hacking into government databases and doing what trained terrorists failed to do. The image of a boy staying up in the night down at his basement working on his computer and wreaking havoc many miles away is prevalent. Just because hacking has become much easier than before does not translate to teenage boys selling Military secrets to rival states. Certainly, there may be a one in a million case if such an incident. However, this is an exception which proves the rule. The furthest a typical teenager will go to is illegally downloading warez software and music from the Internet and copying these onto a CD (piracy).

Cybercriminals are not “real” criminals

Strangely, many cybercriminals believe these themselves. This actually gives them the justification to continue committing cyber crimes because these are not “real” crimes. The popularity of online chatting under pretence has reinforced the belief that the cyber world is separate from the real one. This encourages criminals to dismiss ethics and morals. Cyberstalking, child pornography, online threats and blackmail are now pressing issues. The crimes themselves are not manifested in the real world, but the damage done is. Many also use the Net to find victims in the real world to rape, assault or even murder. An even more terrible counterexample for this issue is the rapid spread of cyberterrorism in which computers are being used to disrupt all telecommunication and security systems in a country.

All Cybercriminals have the same characteristics

Although some cybercriminals have similar characteristics, it is impossible to treat all cybercriminals as if they were alike because they are not. Each criminal subculture has its very own type of personality and areas of speciality. instance, a scam artist cannot be put in the same category as a serial killer in a getaway truck even if the damage done appears to be the same. Only when people realize that there is no “typical” cybercriminal will they start taking appropriate action against each specific type, in the process closing all loopholes for cybercriminals to operate or escape through.

VenomousTruth:
I recently bumped into a new girl, I believed her to be in her early 20s. it was night time and I needed to buy airtime for an important call. we got talking and she called me a funny guy, I asked her for an handshake and she kept withdrawing her hand saying my fingers are romantic... I just laughed lol, I new she wasn't what I thought she was with that statement... she said she likes me, that I am a caring type, and gentle, I thanked her for the compliments.

now I had to go, she then asked me if I'd love to peck her... that was a lil shock, then I said I even wanna do more than just pecking, she laughed and said the normal thing "you're not serious" then she gave me the go ahead... she looked around and when she was free from preying eyes, she asked me to peck her but I kissed her and she licked her lips. truth be told, I got hard, thank God it was night time lol. I knew I could get what I wanted that instant but I needed to verify something... I asked her how old she is and she said 16, UNBELIEVABLE! I pretended to be okay with it and walked away with a smile but the body on this girl, it is simply awesome my Goshinness! she is packed with indescribable sweetness... mere looking at her or feeling the softness of her skin will give any man goosebumps all over... but she's only 16, I'm really tempted cry
According to the Law, 16 is child abuse.
According to the Street, 16 is the best time to catch them.
Dude, hide from the law, and be open to the street.

Foreign Affairs › Meet Corporal Wojtek A Polish Soldier In WW2 by UncleSnr(op):
Let me introduce you to Corporal Wojtek. He was a Polish soldier in WW2.

The only weird thing… is that he was a bear.

https://i2.wp.com/res.cloudinary.com/unclesnr/image/upload/v1520488267/corporal-w.jpg?resize=600%2C337&ssl=1

Wojtek served as a soldier in the 22nd Artillery Supply Company from 1944–1947.

Wojtek was a Syrian Brown bear purchased by Polish Soldiers and eventually trained to carry ammunition for his company while in combat. He reportedly never dropped any ammunition in his entire time in service.

The name Wojtek roughly translates to ‘joyful warrior’

He entered the unit as a private and was soon promoted to Corporal.

https://i2.wp.com/learnvercity.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/03/Corporal_Wojtek.jpg?w=581&ssl=1

He was treated exactly like a soldier. He had his own rank, serial number, and even a paybook. In the eyes of the government, he was a soldier.

He even lived like a soldier. He slept near the barracks and marched with them during drills.

When the men were off duty, they would smoke cigarettes and drink beer. The bear was no exception. They would give him a beer to drink and even light cigarettes for him. He loved them. In their spare time, they would also play wrestle each other for fun. The bear was just one of the boys.

https://i0.wp.com/res.cloudinary.com/unclesnr/image/upload/v1520488677/Wojtek7-290x290.jpg?resize=290%2C290&ssl=1

One time, Wojtek was walking by the bathhouse, and he came upon an enemy spy. Wojtek slapped him upside the head, knocked him to the ground, and growled at him until he surrendered. When interrogated, the spy gave up vital information on enemy positions.

Not only did he find a spy, he also served at the Battle of Monte Cassino, and did wonders for Allied morale on the Eastern Front. And he did this all while drinking massive amounts of beer.

Wojtek was one bada*s bear.

Or are CU lecturers all Foreign trained? or CU graduates themselves?
You can raise up without putting down you know?
Unless if you are just kidding.
That is called brain drain. Hijacking the best from the lesson centres and using it to their advantage...
Since the lesson centres couldn't afford them. cheesy
