Crime Alert

 

I was scammed by a seller on Instagram. What options do I have?

First, you may want to get evidence of this scam (Payment receipt and conversation, etc). DO NOT REPORT THE ACCOUNT OR GET IT DEACTIVATED. Doing this will drastically reduce your chances of getting this person especially in the event that ip addresses and account login activity etc are needed by an investigator. Once you have compiled the evidence, go to your local law enforcement and file a complaint, showing the evidence of course. While there might not be much that they can do, they at least now have a record of this scam. You may then contact a cyber-crime investigator for help. While there is really no 100% guarantee that you can get your money back, you may be lucky enough to get enough information to find and get this person arrested. Of course, this depends on the amount you lost. If it wasn’t so much, you should let it go and learn from you mistake.
