In brief

The Prevention of Electronic Crimes Act 2016 (PECA) covers unauthorised access, electronic fraud, identity misuse, harassment and related offences. Investigations are handled by the specialist federal cyber crime agency, previously the FIA's Cyber Crime Wing and now the NCCIA.

We help victims preserve evidence and file a strong complaint. We also defend people who receive notices or are accused under PECA, including with bail and responses to inquiries.

Who this is for

Victims of online offences, as well as individuals and businesses accused or called for inquiry.

How we can assist

  • Cyber crime complaints and follow-up
  • Replies to notices and inquiry representation
  • Bail and defence in PECA cases
  • Preserving digital evidence
  • Content and account-related remedies

When clients come to us

  • Someone hacked your account or created a fake profile
  • Your business was hit by digital fraud
  • You received a notice under PECA
  • A former business partner or employee stole data

How the matter moves

For a complainant, we organise the evidence and file a clear complaint. It is reviewed and may proceed through an inquiry to an FIR. For an accused person, we respond to any notice, attend to the inquiry, apply for bail where needed and defend the case in court.

Papers to keep ready

  • Screenshots with URLs, dates and profile links
  • Phone numbers and transaction IDs
  • CNIC of the complainant
  • Any notice received

Questions clients ask

Are screenshots enough as evidence?

They are a useful start, but also keep original messages, links and device data. Do not delete anything.

Where do I file a complaint?

Cyber crime complaints go to the federal cyber crime agency, and we can help with the correct and current procedure.

I received a PECA notice. What should I do?

Do not ignore it, and take advice before answering or attending. Bring a copy of the notice to us quickly.
