The growing rate of cybercrime has turned into a crucial concern that makes people more afraid of cyberwar than a nuclear weapon and climate change. An alarming awareness level has been observed in this study which is not satisfactory. A significant percentage of the population is unaware of cybersecurity policies and practices. Even the relevant organizations, as well as the government, are not concerned about the issues of cybercrime. A significant variation is essential to enrich the cybersecurity policies and practices. Furthermore, it needs to be monitored and restructured with the pace of time. This pilot study is designed to consider a comprehensive investigation regarding the level of cybercrime awareness amongst Bangladeshi people. The survey has been carried out through both the online and offline responses against a well-prepared questionnaire. Additionally, T-test, mean score and ANOVA tests were accompanied for detailed analysis. Based on this study, it is recommended that the development and implementation of a massive cybersecurity awareness program are urgently required that would immune the citizens from cyber threats.
