So, first of all, if you are in the midst of this scam and you’re still talking to someone, the best thing you can do, really, is to ask someone, like, show them, like, hey, I’m talking with this person. Do you think it’s real? Because if you’re still doubting it, getting a second opinion from a trusted friend can really help you kind of realize, oh, wait, no, I am wrong.
Then once you realize that you have been scammed, the best thing you can do is just report, report the crime not only to your local police, but also to the FBI’s Internet Crime Complaint Center. Find your local field office, the U.S. Secret Service, and tell them about this crime. You’re often not the only victim. You know these websites that are set up and they’re active for many different weeks, sometimes months.
And so if you report, you’re not only helping yourself, but maybe also other victims, because law enforcement may then be able to cluster those cases together, amounts of funds do the investigation and you may find yourself year or two later, might end up finding out from law enforcement, hey, they were able to see some funds.
And it looks like you may have been part of the same fraudulent website that defrauded a lot of other people. So you’re only doing yourself a favor by reporting the crime. You’re only doing yourself a disfavor by not reporting it.
