El ciberdelito: un necesario agravante de la estafa en el código penal colombiano

Abstract

The computer revolution born with the new century carried on to the present day has brought us a large number of benefits and comforts for the normal daily development of our lives, but with them, a number of new crimes have also come that have been implemented by people who see electronic media as a necessary mechanism in our daily lives. Thus, and taking into account that new computer crimes and cybercriminals are a new generation of perpetrators and behaviors, it is required, through new tools, to investigate and analyze the problem from different perspectives, in order to counteract this growing scourge. There is, in this context, a flaw that comes to be oriented in the normative application and of course the inexistence of recent jurisprudence, since it is not constantly updated and has left some gaps that have not allowed to be in the same career of criminals and their modus operandi. The need arises from the construction of a much more robust criminal system, which understands the new criminal forms in order to make our accusatory system much more efficient, in the search and updating of knowledge, with the promulgation of new instruments that allow us to face the better way, all the criminal scaffolding in a direct and objective way at the moment in which the commission of a crime that involves technological means in its realization occurs.
