Chandigarh Police Releases Advisory on Cybercrimes Associated with Studio Ghibli Art latest news: The UT Chandigarh Cyber Crime Police Station has issued an urgent advisory cautioning against growing cybercrimes using Studio Ghibli art and its fame. Cybercriminals are using online scams, identity theft, and malware attacks to target fans.

Scam sites purporting to sell Studio Ghibli items have been reported for swiping payment information, sending bogus products, or vanishing after purchase. Members should verify the website's legitimacy before purchasing. The same is also true with scam Ghibli-themed contests and emails with Trojan links tricking people into downloading malicious programs and divulging private information.

Malware is also being placed in downloadable Ghibli wallpapers and art packs, invading user privacy and data security. In addition, impersonating fan artists, fake social media profiles have been seen, tricking people into purchasing counterfeit art or revealing sensitive information.

The alert also indicates threats with AI-powered apps capturing facial information, which can be used for synthetic identity fraud and deepfake attacks if it is sold on the dark web. Chandigarh Police asks the users to deal with only authentic accounts, be cautious about suspicious downloads, and maintain online security.
