	IC3 accepts complaints from individuals who feel that they have been victims of internet crime and from a third party to the complaint.
	You can file a complaint on their website, http://www.ic3.gov/
	When giving your report be sure and be as complete as possible.
	They require you to give the following information: your name, your mailing address, your telephone number, the name, address, telephone number, and Web address, if available, of the individual or organization you believe defrauded you, specific details on how, why, and when you believe you were defrauded, and any other relevant information you believe is necessary to support your complaint.
