Cyber Crime Tip: If you aren't sure, don't click.

The Internet is used by criminals for all sorts of scams and crimes to try and separate you from your money.  This can occur by replying to a “pop up” advertisement or an email.  If you receive a “pop up” ad or an email and you are not sure if it is legitimate, do not reply.  Do some research and confirm it is a legitimate service/company first.  You should never share personal or financial information on line unless you are confident that the information is going to the proper company, organization or financial institution.   

Private sites, such as Consumer Fraud Reporting.Org have resources and information on web based crime as well as other traditional fraud crime. The FBI participates in a website dedicated to collecting Internet crime info called the Internet Crime Complaint Center. Take a look at these sites and search for information on topics that include tips to avoid becoming a victim of Internet based scams or crime.
