Pol Col Neti Wongkulab, Deputy Commander of the Technology Crime Suppression Division (TCSD), on the 11 August, together with the Central Investigation Bureau’s (CIB) communications team, delivered a special lecture on cyber safety to students at Suan Sunandha Rajabhat University.

Held at the Sunandhanusorn Auditorium, the seminar, titled “Cyber Trick! – Online Scams Young People Must Outsmart”, was attended by around 300 students. The event formed part of the CIB’s ongoing programme to promote awareness of cyber threats and encourage responsible digital behaviour to ensure online safety.

The session aimed to equip young people with the knowledge to recognise and avoid scams commonly used by fraudsters, particularly in the digital marketplace. Topics included identifying fake online shops, verifying authentic web pages and distinguishing between genuine individuals and AI-generated personas.

Following the lecture, participants took part in interactive games designed to test and reinforce their understanding of cybercrime prevention, creating an atmosphere that was both educational and enjoyable.

Authorities stressed the importance of vigilance in the rapidly evolving online world, urging students to act as the first line of defence against cybercriminals.
