Cybercrime Costs Billions But How to Report It?
Lucas van Grinsven (Reuters European Technology Correspondent) writes that:
"Britain's National Hi-Tech Crime Unit (NHTCU) three weeks ago estimated the nation's cost of computer crime at $4.7 billion a year. Yet common computer break-ins such as hacking, phishing and identity theft must be reported to the local police. Britain's police offer online forms for citizens to report 'non-emergency minor crimes' including theft, criminal vandalism and damage to motor vehicles, but there is no special category for computer crime."
