You aren't going to get your money back.\n\nAny loan company that asks for fees up front is not legitimate.\n\nThey are not based in the USA, so other than taking a report, law enforcement isn't going to be able to do much of anything for you.

You can report any fraud to the FBI by going to their home page as well as Yahoo, or paypal.~Jean~

Investigate "Prepaid Legal Services" online. It isn't very expensive at all. I used it. The drawback is that the lawyers you speak with are interested in getting rid of your inquiry very expeditiously; they want to end the phone conversation, and you know it in every word out of their mouths.

If you have a really good claim, get a lawyer. That usually gets some action.

Send me a check for $50.00 and I'll tell you what you can do about internet fraud. Email me for more information.\n\nSeriously, it depends on what type of fraud. I was a victim of it by receiving a phoney cashier's check for a peice of musical equipment I had to sell. I went to cash the check at the bank, and as a result had my account shut down, and wasn't allowed to open an account at any bank for months until it got straightened out finally.\n\nGo to the police. Ask them what you can do. They will probably give you the same answer they gave me the first two times. "Nothing." They are all lazy fucking pigs. But make them do something. \n\nReally it depends on what type of fraud, though.

Most states have hotlines for insurance fraud, do a search. You must be absolutely positive that you have all the facts, this is a very serious charge.

It sounds to me like a good idea would be to find a lawyer that will either take on your cause as charity or maybe let you work for him to pay off the charges incurred while he helps you get your papers.

The best way is to go to one of many internet firms and pay them to do it. You can look it up court by court yourself but the pros can do a better job.

contact the postal inspector as they handle fraud and other things. the u.s. attorney could get involved on the case. there are statute of limitations on fraud but its based on knowledge of and starts from the time you know about the crime. as you state family stole it and and you had knowledge of it thirty years ago and are just now for some reson wanting to turn them in makes you a accessory for knowing everything and not reporting it right away. it could be you had a falling out and want to spill the beans now. first thing is contact a criminal defense attorney as the consult is free. then from that point they can defend you if they think you will get in trouble for knowing, but never saying, especially if you saw this happen. its a federal offense which is bigger trouble.

these so called fraud protectors are a waste of time and money!  these credit card companies are supposed to do this service for you for free.  You will know if your card was not used by you or with your consent because it will show up on your report.  the companies should repay you for this also!  They may close the account and reopen a new one in your name with a different number but that is better than paying those rediculous prices for this protection.

Most places will charge you a fee to do what you can do yourself, so just skip the middleman and do it youself.\n\nContact the companies that show negative information on your report and deal with them directly.\n\nJust make sure you get everything in writing.  It's easy for a company rep to SAY this is the deal and then have the company say, "we show no record of that 'deal'."

You can contact you local police department, however, this type of fraud is on the rise and it is very hard to trace. The best thing to do is not give the person ANY of your information.

Hi David\n\nI don't think fraud would do it but I think misappropriation of funds would possibly do the trick, and a few of the juicy niceties from the Companies Act and associated legislation would not go amiss.
