Internet Crimes in California

Internet crimes are a newer area of white collar crime that includes any crime committed through, by or using the internet. Virtually any crime, from harassment to fraud to kidnapping, can occur over or using the internet. Because so many business and financial transactions are completed using computers and the internet, internet crime rates are high and state and federal law enforcement agencies are working hard to locate and stop these illegal actions. This has proven to be an uphill battle because new ways of hacking or committing other internet crimes are created faster than law enforcement can figure it out and stop the old methods.

Phishing (posing as a reputable company to obtain customers’ financial or personal information), internet auction fraud, credit and debit card fraud, click and search engine fraud, child pornography, work-at home schemes, spamming (illegal mass emailing), and hacking are all common internet crimes.
