The webcam shield comprises a displaying surface or front surface and a permanent attachment surface or rear surface; wherein the rear surface of the webcam shield further includes a shielding portion which partially adheres to the lens of the webcam to provide protection from camfecting and lets that adhesion go for opening by its own material makeup while camera is in use, an attachment portion from where the webcam shield get attached beside the lens of the camera, and an attachment member preferably, but not limited to, adhesive tape to attach the webcam shield from the device tightly. While the displaying surface of the shield which is visible while attached to the webcam may include any pleasant design, images, logo or the name. The attachment surface of the shield at the shielding portion includes large number of microscopic craters that work by creating many partial vacuums between the shielding portion of the attachment surface and the lens of the webcam which is not pressure sensitive and thus allows user to detach and attach the shielding portion from the lens of the camera. Further the shielding portion of the webcam shield is made of a material having static clinging characteristic that provides additional adhesion while coupling with the lens of the camera.
