I found this important article, maybe it's the time to have the FBI to work in the e-crime more and more.
Then again, maybe it's not. Where will the FBI get the budget to work on e-crime? Remember that to be good at that takes some talent and training, and the prospective candidates can probably get better paying jobs elsewhere, even in today's economy. To be brutal - do we really need to declare a "War on E-Crime" when we're still fighting a War on Terrorism and a War on Drugs? (I'll leave it to the others in the tinfoil helmet brigade to discuss whether we should give the FBI sufficient budget in order to be able to effectively use the various "War on Privacy and Civil Rights" tools they've been given recently....)
