This legal research employs a normative-empirical approach. The data used consists of primary data obtained through direct interviews with respondents and informants, as well as secondary data in the form of primary legal materials, secondary legal materials, and tertiary legal materials. The data is analyzed using qualitative methods and presented descriptively.

The findings of this research indicate, first, that the Cyber Unit of the Regional Police of the Special Region of Yogyakarta (Polda DIY) handled two cases of online gaming fraud in 2024, with perpetrators offering top-up services for online games through social media platforms. At the reporting stage, investigators followed systematic procedures, starting from the receipt of the report to the assessment of its admissibility. During the investigation stage, initial information gathering, preliminary evidence collection, suspect identification, and tracking efforts were carried out. However, the investigation process faced obstacles due to the deactivation of the suspect’s phone number, which hindered further progress. Second, the impediments in locating the suspects were caused by two primary factors: the limited availability of digital forensic facilities and the inadequacy of human resources, both in terms of quality and quantity.
