�The internet has brought us great bene�fits but also new forms of vulnerability. Computers are attacked by hackers, people buying online are defrauded, and stalkers use digital technology to hound their victims. This research presents the �first countrywide view of victimisation in the Netherlands caused by ‘o�ffences with a digital component’, in other words cybercrime. �The results were collated from data covering 9,163 users of the internet from the age of 15 upwards. �They focus chie�fly on the scale of victimisation and the factors aff�ecting the risk of becoming a victim. �The role of the police is also taken into account. The �figures reveal that cybercrime has a serious impact on the daily life of ordinary people. It has all the characteristics of high-volume crime. �This means that expertise on cybercrime ought to be broadly available throughout the entire chain of criminal law. The results of this research are signi�ficant for all who are involved in the digitisation of our society and in combating crime.
