ReportCyber: Who Qualifies and What You Get
Learn how to use the ReportCyber system to report cybercrime incidents in Australia.
ReportCyber is an online service used to report incidents involving cybercrime.
Who it's for
This scheme is designed for anyone who has been a victim of cybercrime. If you have experienced a digital crime or a security incident involving your online information, you qualify to use this reporting mechanism.
What you get
The primary benefit is access to a free, online form. This digital tool allows you to submit a cybercrime report directly to the relevant authorities. By using this online form, you can provide the necessary details of the incident to help document what occurred.
What it costs you
There is no cost to use this service. Reporting your experience through the official online system is free for all victims.
The catch to know
The most important thing to understand before you start is the purpose of the service. This system is strictly for reporting incidents so that the authorities are aware of the crime. It is not a recovery service, meaning the process is intended for reporting rather than for recovering lost funds or assets.
How to apply
- Go to the official government portal.
- Navigate to the section dedicated to cybercrime reporting.
- Carefully fill out the online form with all the information regarding your incident.
- Submit the form to complete your report.
