Abstract: In this day and age, the usage of Social Media has increased enormously in our daily lives. People like to\nshare their experiences in various social media accounts for their friends to see. Consequently, the\npossibility and growth of cyber threats have increased as well. To reduce this situation, we try to propose\na system that can detect cyber crimes such as fraud, blackmail, spam, impersonation etc. from the social\nmedia network Twitter. This type of study can help people to detect early threats and possible criminal\nactivity and the types of accounts to stay alert of in real time thereby creating a more secure social media\nexperience. Our main goal is to compare various sentiment analysis approaches for detecting bullying or\nthreats from social media using three different machine learning algorithms and form a comparison to\ndetermine which among the three gives out the highest accuracy in order for us to decide how to detect\ncyber bullying activity on the Internet and be alert of threats in both the real and virtual world.
