What is the Consumer Sentinel Network?
The Consumer Sentinel Network is an investigative cybertool and complaint database that provides hundreds of civil and criminal law enforcement agencies immediate and secure access to Internet, telemarketing and other consumer fraud-related complaints. Online since 1997, Consumer Sentinel now has more than 750,000 fraud and identity theft complaints from consumers all over the world. The FTC, the FBI’s Internet Fraud Complaint Center, the National Consumer’s League’s National Fraud Information Center, numerous local Better Business Bureaus, the Social Security Administration’s Office of the Inspector General and Canada’s PhoneBusters contribute consumer complaints to the database.
