Social Awareness
Cinesta created the Digital Arrest Fraud awareness film for Surat Police Cyber Cell to address one of the most dangerous forms of cybercrime. Fraudsters impersonate law enforcement officers or government officials, threatening victims with false legal action to extort money.
The film dramatizes how these scams typically unfold, raising awareness about the fear tactics and digital notices used by cybercriminals. It also highlights how Surat Police Cyber Cell is taking proactive steps to protect citizens, including public awareness drives, reporting mechanisms, and cyber-helplines.
Designed as an informative tool, the film balances storytelling with education. Subtitles and crisp narration ensure accessibility, while cinematic reenactments drive the message home with emotional impact. The goal: to empower citizens with knowledge and encourage them to verify before they trust — making Surat safer, smarter, and more cyber-aware.
Snaps From the Project
