IC3 (Internet Crime Complaint Center)

The Internet Crime Complaint Center (IC3) is a platform operated by the FBI that allows individuals and businesses to report suspected internet-related crimes, such as fraud, identity theft, and scams. It collects these reports to help detect patterns, investigate criminal activity, and facilitate law enforcement action. IC3 also provides resources and alerts to educate the public about online threats. Essentially, it acts as a central hub for reporting and addressing internet crimes, improving coordination between victims and law enforcement agencies to combat cybercrime effectively.
