Twenty years ago, no one ever heard of cyber chats or cybersex. Today those words are common; there are millions of web pages devoted to cyber crime topics. There are websites that show how to commit an Internet crime.
Since the early 2000’s, the FBI has operated a Cyber Crime Task Force. They are cracking down on cyber fraud and Internet identity theft crimes. Most of these types of crimes originate in India while cybersex sites originate in the Philippines, Greece, Germany and Australia.
Statistics show that many sexual predators who entice children on the Internet are 30+ white males with an average income of over $70,000 per year. A defendant in an Internet crime must prove that he would never have committed this crime if the police had not trapped him. All I have to add is that I would suggest anyone involved in this type of crime should definitely consult a Criminal attorney, one that specializes in Internet crimes.
