Los Angeles Internet Criminal Lawyers

What is an Internet Crime?

Criminal lawyers know an internet crime is a criminal offense using a computer and through the internet. With technology in a constant state of evolution and the rapid emergence of social media, more and more people are sharing personal information online.

While sharing information seems benign to many, it can be extremely harmful if the wrong people obtain personal details, like social security numbers or credit card numbers. Once people have this information, they can engage in illegal online transactions, like credit card fraud or mass spamming.

With the increase in internet crimes, law enforcement surveillance has stepped up significantly. Now, anytime law enforcement suspects people are committing serious internet crimes, they quickly launch investigations, which may lead to agents confiscating computers and hard drives. It may also lead to officers conducting unlawful searches and seizures in violation of the 4th Amendment of the United States Constitution.
