In this age of digitalization, phishing has become a crime that is close to human life. In phishing crimes, the perpetrators identity is mostly unknown or anonymous. The perpetrators identity is the primary key for processing a lawsuit in court. Victims who dont know the real identity of the phisher will not be able to file a lawsuit for compensation. This study aims to determine the legal protection the state provides to phishing victims, especially in terms of compensation. This research uses a juridical-normative method with data collection through a literature study. Law No. 1 of 2024 on the Second Amendment to Law No. 11 of 2008 regarding Electronic Information and Transactions (ITE Law), Law No. 27 of 2022 regarding Personal Data Protection (PDP Law), and other constitutional regulations are the primary legal materials in this research. The secondary legal materials are relevant research results, journals, and books. Based on the research conducted, it has been shown that its necessary to establish the real identity of the perpetrator who can be responsible for compensating the victims of phishing. The difficulty of finding phishers who can hide their real identities and digital footprints are the main obstacle to compensating phishing victims.

Conclusion

The study concludes that while Indonesian law provides criminal sanctions for phishing, it lacks specific provisions for victim compensation.Establishing the perpetrators identity remains a significant challenge in pursuing legal recourse.Strengthening cybersecurity measures, improving perpetrator tracking capabilities, and enacting laws specifically addressing compensation for cybercrime victims are crucial steps to enhance legal protection for those affected by phishing.

Future Research

Future research should explore the feasibility of establishing a dedicated fund, potentially financed by financial institutions, to provide immediate financial assistance to phishing victims while legal proceedings are underway. Furthermore, investigation is needed into the development of standardized protocols for banks and financial institutions to proactively identify and mitigate phishing risks, coupled with clear guidelines on their liability in cases of successful phishing attacks. Finally, a comparative study analyzing international best practices in cybercrime victim compensation could inform the development of more effective legal frameworks in Indonesia, particularly focusing on mechanisms for identifying and recovering assets from anonymous perpetrators.
