| Question/Topic: |
Computer or Internet Fraud
|
| Answer/Pointer: |
In Florida: Florida Dept. of Law Enforcement's Computer Crime Center (850-410-7000). The Center was recently created to help
solve state and national crimes that include Internet fraud. (Tall Demo, 8/19/00, p. 3E)
If you paid by postal money order, wire fraud might be a potential charge. Contact the U.S. Postal Service at 1-800-275-8777
to inquire about filing a complaint, or go to your local post office.
If you paid by credit card, dispute the charge immediately and request an investigation of the merchant or seller. (same Tall Demo article listed above)
