FBI, NW3C Develop Financial Crime-fighting CD

The two agencies have collaborated on a tool that will help law enforcement combat identity theft, Internet fraud, insurance fraud and other financial crimes.

RICHMOND, VA - The FBI and the National White Collar Crime Center (NW3C) have collaborated on a training CD that offers information designed to help law enforcement officers conduct financial investigations.

The "Big Money" CD covers topics such as money laundering, identity theft, Internet fraud, securities fraud, telemarketing fraud, healthcare fraud, insurance crime and gambling.

"As states make the move to strengthen law enforcement strategies to combat fraud at many levels, added emphasis needs to also be placed on training officers, investigators, and prosecutors to respond more effectively and aggressively to offenses involving these crimes and their victims," said Richard Johnston, director NW3C. "We believe this type of information effort is key to managing the growing threat posed by financial crime."

The CD will be distributed to state and local law enforcement agencies and all FBI field offices through the NW3C.
