Document:
Identity theft has become an increasing problem in the gaming community. Stealing a valve account violates the USC and the Identity Theft and Assumption Act of 1998.
Schemes to commit identity theft or fraud may also involve violations of other statutes such as identification fraud (18 U.S.C. § 1028), credit card fraud (18 U.S.C. § 1029), computer fraud (18 U.S.C. § 1030), mail fraud (18 U.S.C. § 1341), wire fraud (18 U.S.C. § 1343), or financial institution fraud (18 U.S.C. § 1344). Each of these federal offenses are felonies that carry substantial penalties * in some cases, as high as 30 years' imprisonment, fines, and criminal forfeiture.
We of the Fortress Forever staff take these problems seriously. We will report all IP addresses and links immediately through the Federal Trade Commissions identity theft website as well as the IC3. Companies including, but not limited too yahoo, gmail, hotmail, and ripway have all been very helpful in tracking down criminals using their sites to commit fraud.
