What can you do if you are a victim of e-crime?

I think that there is a very good example of how a platform could be offered for victims of cyber crime. There are often questions around: What are my rights? What can I do if something bad happens? Who is here to help?...

www.e-victims-org offers answers to a lot of questions like those and offers help. Ed Gibson, my CSA mate in the UK, is actually on the Advisory Council.

e-Crime is any sort of crime where electronic means are used. This might be new crimes or standard crimes where electronic means are used.

What you can do if your a vicim: Well, basically the same thing as you do in the physical world: Go to the police.

If you are mobbed, it will be much, much harder
