Description: The high level of insecurity on the internet is becoming worrisome so much so that transaction on the web has become a thing of doubt. Cy-bercrime is becoming ever more serious and prevalent. Findings from 2002 Computer Crime and Security Survey show an upward trend that demonstrates a need for a timely review of existing approaches to fighting this new phenomenon in the information age. In this paper, we provide an overview of Cybercrime and present an international per-spective on fighting Cybercrime. This work seeks to define the concept of cyber-crime, explain tools being used by the criminals to perpetrate their evil handiworks, identify reasons for cyber-crime, how it can be eradicated, look at those involved and the reasons for their involve-ment, we would look at how best to detect a criminal mail and in conclu-sion, proffer recommendations that would help in checking the increas-ing rate of cyber-crimes and criminals.
