Cyber crime affects everyone. Least affected are typically those under 20, but students switching to studying online during the pandemic in 2020 contributed to a nearly 100% increase in victims under 20 (from around 10,000 to more than 20,000). Numbers have dropped by 36% in 2021, but remain 56% above pre-Covid levels. Pensioners (60+) are the group most vulnerable to cyber crime. 2020 saw a 55% increase in cyber crime victims over the age of 60, and this has continued to increase through 2021 to over 92,000 victims.
