Computer Crimes

Criminals are more efficient than ever. They operate in the world of online computer communications, "The Internet". More criminals commit their crimes electronically, by going online with a computer. It's quick, it's often easy, and they figure the police don't know enough to catch them. It's true that the crooks have a head start, but we're catching up quick.

Chasing a criminal through cyberspace isn't anything like the classic police chase in the movies. That was all action. This is all details. You don't have to be tech savvy to catch a cyber-criminal. We just have to do what we do every day:

  • Ask the right questions
  • Understand what clues, leads, and evidence to look for
  • Collect and preserve the evidence

Be smart, be safe, be suspicious!
