Federal statutory law and the laws of many states specifically
address computer intrusion, fraud, the interception of data
communications and the transmission of malicious code. The law
specifies punishments, including prison terms and fines, for such
violations.
Internet-related crime should be
reported to Sprint
and appropriate law enforcement authorities at the
local, state or federal levels. The Department of Justice and FBI
have teams organized to fight and prosecute computer crime.
