Cyber crime encompasses any criminal act dealing with computers and networks (called hacking). Additionally, cyber crime also includes traditional crimes conducted through the Internet.
For example, here are some types of cyber crimes; hate crimes, telemarketing and Internet fraud, identity theft, and credit card account thefts are considered to be cyber crimes when the illegal activities are committed through the use of a computer and the Internet.

True, but those are only the candy coated things some people do online. There are much worse things people can do with a computer and some good programming skills.

I never knew Telemarketing is also listed in the Cyber crime.

I agree there are lot's of hell thing in the internet world that people can do. Having some good programming knowledge and some extra (evil mind) may be used to some naughty things in the internet. This also shows up with the hacking of many governmental sites and banking accounts of the business man. I think the main weapon of Next world war will be the internet.
