Cyber criminals from Russia and Eastern Europe are attacking businesses across North Wales, according to the Police and Crime Commissioner, Arfon Jones.

He said there’s more crime being committed in cyberspace than there is on the region’s streets – and businesses are among those most at risk.

The ONS estimated that there were 5.6 million fraud and computer misuse crimes in the 12 months up to the end of June 2016.
