Just as a note of interest I had something similar last year with CC fraud. I can tell you that none of the police municipalities have the manpower to help with fraud unless it is a large amount of money that is involved. For instance I had approx $5000 worth of charges made on our Visa in one day. Luckily we caught it just in time and stopped the charges. We still ended up losing a couple of Hundred dollars.

When we went to the Sherrifs Department and the local city police Department (San Francisco) they were not at all interested due to the shear volume of fraud cases. There was a woman at the desk who had been working with a company to book a wedding party adventrue in Hawaii for like $40,000. and lost it all. Even then they just do not have the resources to deal with internet or CC fraud. The FBI will not do much either unless it is a substancial amount of actual cash losses involved. This sort of thing is so huge that the law enforcement iagencies are struggling to figure out how to really deal with it. The only people who are equipt to handle it are those companies who have their own investigating forensics in place. We work with federal agents in our employment and they do have people trained to do such stuff, but nowhere near enough to deal with a worldwide problem of petty losses every single day. Good luck with that.
