How to report to cyber police
So what do you do when a cybercrime happens? There are three ways to report a crime to the Cyber Investigation Unit. The first method is to go directly to the complaint office of the police station and report it, the second method is to report it by phone (182 without an area code), and the third method is to report it online through the cyber crime reporting system.

Reporting procedure
Cybercrime Reporting Procedure
If you file a report online, it takes up to 14 days to determine the responsible office, so if it’s urgent, you can go to the police station in person to get it done faster. And, as shown in the picture above, even if you proceed with the online application, you must visit the police station if the investigator in charge requests your attendance to submit evidence of damage or ask for more details.
If you report a cyber crime, you will receive an answer within 7 days whether to proceed with the case. If you decide to proceed, then proceed as the Cyber Investigation Team in charge of the government office tells you to do. It is said that the processing period for cybercrime takes as little as one month and as long as six months, so please proceed with plenty of time.
