A raft of new penalties, including fines of up to Dh1 million and jail terms of five years, have been passed in the UAE in response to growing online cryptocurrency fraud that has left people around the world out of pocket by hundreds of millions. Al Rowaad Advocates Managing Partner Dr Hassan Elhais explained the new provisions to The National newspaper, including the application against anyone promoting e-currency without a proper license and separately against anyone using ‘bots’ to circulate crypto scams. In 2018, two Dubai residents were sentenced to more than 500 years in jail for fraud of almost $500 million in one such scheme.
I offer my legal opinion in an article over the warning from the UAE's Attorney General Dr Hamad Al Shamsi that rumours and misinformation spread by people in the UAE about the Coronavirus pandemic will lead to legal consequences. I am quoted affirming Dr Al Shamsi's words that such behaviour could be punished under threats to national security or cybercrime laws, explaining that any action that contribute to public fear or panic will be penalized. The article also clarifies that some people in the UAE had already faced legal action as a result of such activity.

In an article in the Khaleej Times newspaper, two of our lawyers explain what new amendments to UAE Information Technology crime laws mean. Hassan Elhais clarifies that online insults and threats may no longer lead to jail time or deportation, but judges have discretion - whereas they previously did not. Awatif Mohammed explains that there is a limitation to this, with sexual crimes and hate crimes still attracting the same punishments - which can even include the death penalty. However, she reveals the use of electronic probation measures is a region-first and shows the country is developing a sophisticated judicial system.
In my publication, I discussed about the necessity of understanding the pertinent laws of cyber-crime in United Arab Emirates, which can help the general public to escape from any complication related to this subject.
