Identity Theft
If you believe you have been the victim of identity theft, use this form to send a complaint to the Federal Trade Commission (FTC). While the FTC does not resolve individual consumer problems, your complaint helps them investigate fraud and can lead to law enforcement action.

Internet Fraud Complaint Center
Alert authorities of a suspected criminal or civil violation through the Internet Fraud Complaint Center (IFCC). The IFCC serves as a central place for Internet fraud complaints, works to find fraud patterns, and provides timely data of fraud trends.

Internet Investment Fraud
File concerns and problems with individual investors at the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Complaints can alert the SEC to a bad broker or firm, an unfair practice in the securities industry, or the latest Internet fraud.

Default Report Internet Fraud

There is company call amazoneast.com
This company is located in China and they pretend to sell electronics. They continue communicating with you until you pay the money then they never respond to you.
I have been one of the people who were subject to this type of transactions.
I bought from them an Iphone 4 and paid the money and they never delivered my goods and ignored all my communication.
