- Invictus0 4y agoFrom their FAQ: Q: Who should file a complaint with the Internet Crime Complaint Center (IC3)? You may file a complaint with the IC3 if you believe you have been the victim of an Internet crime or if you want to file on behalf of another person you believe has been such a victim. Since I haven't been a victim, I don't think I can make a report.
- withinboredom 4y agoWouldn’t you be filing “on the behalf of another person you believe has been such a victim?”
- giantg2 4y agoYou can still be considered as a victim in some cases even if the actual criminal attempt failed. Not sure if that would apply here.
- bombcar 4y agoThis is likely the best you can do. If the information is of use, it will be filtered into their systems. You might also be able to report it to coinbase, but I don't know what they do beyond cancelling accounts.
- yakak 4y ago> I don't know what they do beyond cancelling accounts. Unless they've got sophisticated with payment URLs, I don't think they couldn't do that on this alone. These kinds of spams would quickly become a DOS attack on other people's accounts, and some spammers could even be planning to get a refund from a wallet holder they only presume to be gullible.
- e-clinton 4y agoIs this any better these days? I got scammed by someone out of $1600 and I knew their name and address, FBI never even bothered to respond. It’s been 15 years.
