How Do You Report Wire Transfer Fraud?
If you have been scammed out of your hard-earned money through a wire transfer fraud scheme, you can fight back. Since this fraud could have a devastating effect on your credit rating, and could lead to identity theft down the line, you should do everything you can to report your fraud complaint and push back against the technologically savvy criminal that has defrauded you. Call your bank. If you get a hold of them early enough in the process, they might even be able to hold your money pending investigation. At the very least your bank will know that you’ve been the victim of a potential crime, and could point you in other directions for help. Call the police. Your local police force might have a technology crimes or identity theft unit, and wire transfer fraud could fall under their jurisdiction. If you think your life is in danger, call 911. Otherwise, look up the number for your local police department and call the front desk. Speak to the Internet Crime Complaint Center. The ICCC,
