Thank you for asking me “What is the Internet Crimes Complaint Center / “IC3"?”

IC3 (found at: www.ic3.gov ) is the FBI’s online Internet crime complaint center.  It’s part of the FBI’s Cyber Division and it’s staffed by FBI personnel who’ve been chosen for their expertise in prevention, detection and investigation of cyber crimes.  

Per IC3, their mission is to “provide the public with a reliable and convenient reporting mechanism to submit information to the FBI concerning suspected internet-facilitated criminal activity and to develop effective alliances with industry partners.”

So, if you’re the victim of, or even if you’re just aware of any cyber crime - say for instance you discover that your elderly parent sent money to someone that they met on the internet and you suspect that it was a scam, or perhaps you sent a nude selfie to someone and later got a text or email threat from “that someone’s parent” claiming that the recipient was a minor and unless you sent them money they will call the cops - then you can call and report the matter to IC3.

IC3 deals with all sorts of computer cyber crimes ranging from theft of intellectual property rights, to computer intrusion, economic espionage, online extortion, international money laundering or any fraud scheme, such as identity theft, phishing, spam, reshipping, romance scams, non-shipping or shipping of counterfeit goods.

Whether you’re the actual victim or a 3rd party you can file an online police report with the FBI through IC3.
