New Website on Internet Scams and Fraud

This U.S.-based website with the totally cool name Looks Too Good To Be True offers background information and alerts about Internet identity theft, hacking, phishing, spam, spyware, job scams, pyramid schemes, sweepstakes and lotteries, and counterfeit payments. It is a joint project of federal law enforcement agencies in the United States and industry partners.

While a lot of the info is American, Canadians can benefit too.

On July 5, 2005, I posted an item that links to many Canadian resources on cybercrime prevention.
