a. the local agency that had jurisdiction over your first contact. IT IS IMPORTANT that all information in copy form be submitted to your local agency first. Be sure to include the perp's ISP provider, phone number, and the perp's local law enforcement agency that would pick him up. The local agency will take the report and forward to the perp's local agency for their dispatch of an officer.
b. The FBI internet fraud site
www.ifccfbi.gov
c. The perp's ISP provider stating that the perp is using their service to commit internet fraud. Send via regular mail and e-mail.
d. The perp's phone service/ cell provider for using their service to commit internet fraud. Send via regular mail AND e-mail.
e. The US postal service for using the mail to commit mail/ internet fraud. Do two reports, one to your local office and one to the perp's office. Do both regular mail and internet e-mail.

f. File a report with
www.trollhunters.com
g. File a report with

h. Send a complaint form copy to the work location of the perp that is addressed to the owner/manager. Make sure to include the phrase:
"While you do not have any control over this individual when he is not at work, you should make sure that internet fraud is not being committed by the perp using company equipment or company internet access."
i. Notify the perp and provide a list of all reports filed, that you have been forced to take action and that it is now completely out of your hands. The only way that proceedings can be dissolved is by the perp making restitution. Make it known that you gave him every chance, and now the authorities will take over. (at this point negotiating is pointless, the perp knows what to do.) End of discussion. Sometimes the most stubborn crook will do nothing until they get the knock at the door from the police. If that is what it takes, so be it.
What to do when dealing with a minor:
Everything above works fine, but additional work in the area of intelligence gathering is needed. Usually if all the above information is obtained, internet searches can usually point the way
to the parents. The parents are to be notified in the same manner as all the other agencies,
including copies of complaints to other agencies. It is important that you do not threaten a minor via e-mail or phone conversation. Leverage can be used, but to physically threaten with violence will affect your position when pressing charges
