Internet has brought many changes in human life. This technology has an impact on every sphere of life. It has also had some negative effects on our lives, for instance, cyberbullying (CB). Cyberbullying started in late nineties on online forums. But it caught attention when the first case of suicide was reported in the mid-2000s. In Pakistan and other south Asian countries this phenomenon is growing rapidly. Young people, especially females, are becoming the target of cyberbullying. This research used systematic literature review to study the problem regarding the phenomenon of cyberbullying in relation with linguistic features and prevention strategies. From the detection to the prevention stages, a detailed analysis of existing literature provided an overview of the issue. The next phase of the study will focus on collecting primary data from females who faced the severe effects of CB.
