Computer crime costs $67 billion, FBI says

The sky is falling so reported Chicken Little @FBI headquarters: The extrapolated number of 67 Billion from computer fraud, add another 1 billion from telecommunication fraud and another 52.6 Billion in identity fraud. That?s 120.6 Billion in fraud and you don?t hear of anything in the papers or anyone being inditated. Don?t you wonder WHY with all this SO called FRAUD hasn?t anything been reported anywhere? Where is all this money going? These number all sound like FUD to me.

Think about these number and tell me what you think ????????The average cost per company was more than $24,000, with the total cost reaching $32 million for those surveyed. To me these reported numbers from the survey are companies looking to set themselves up for a huge Tax deduction.

If the fraud problems are anywhere near what they?re trying to make us believe I think we should send ALL the bills to the inventor of Windows in Redmond Wa????..

A better idea is just switch over to Linux.; Posted by: Can you hear me Posted on: 01/19/06 You are currently: a Guest | Members login | Terms of Use
