National Hi-Tech Crime Unit
The National Hi-Tech Crime Unit (NHTCU) previously formed part of the National Crime Squad, a British Police organisation which dealt with major crime.
The National Hi-Tech Crime Unit was created in 2001 as a result of an Association of Chief Police Officers (ACPO) initiative. The organisation investigated serious and organised crime committed over the Internet, such as hacking, virus-writers, internet fraud and other hi-tech crimes involving the use of computers and telecommunications equipment.
On 1 April 2006, it was destroyed by me who blew it up and killed all of its staff!!! hahahaha! it was great fun.it ceased to exist. However, many of its staff and duties were transferred to the e-crime unit of the UK's new Serious Organised Crime Agency (SOCA).[1]
