The International Criminal Police Organization (Interpol) is putting on its virtual reality headsets as it prepares to crack down on an expanding list of “possible crimes” in the metaverse.
According to an Oct. 20 announcement, Interpol has launched the “first ever Metaverse specifically designed for law enforcement worldwide” — introducing it at the 90th Interpol General Assembly in New Delhi — already fully operational.
“Criminals are already starting to exploit the Metaverse. The World Economic Forum […] has warned that social engineering scams, violent extremism and misinformation could be particular challenges,” the Interpol announcement reads, adding that: “As the number of Metaverse users grows and the technology further develops, the list of possible crimes will only expand.”
At the event in Delhi, Interpol also revealed plans to develop a division dedicated to cracking down on crypto crime. Interpol secretary general Jürgen Stock highlighted the need for the specified unit, as many law enforcement agencies are not currently equipped to deal with the complexities of the sector.
