| contents | The use of ASCII art as a novel approach to masking sensitive information in cybercrime, focusing on its potential role in protecting personal data during the delivery process and beyond, is presented. By examining the unique properties of ASCII art and its historical context, this study discusses the advantages and limitations of employing this technique in various cybercrime scenarios. Additionally, providing recommendations for enhancing data security practices and fostering a culture of privacy awareness in both businesses and individuals. The findings suggest that ASCII art, with its simplicity and ambiguity, can serve as an effective tool against cybercriminals, emphasizing the need for robust data security measures and increased privacy awareness in today's interconnected world. |
