Re: And how, exactly, can the ISP recognize fraud? The same way the U S Mail and the phone companies do. They do nothing until the authorities carry out an investigation. When people get scammed, they complain to the police or the FBI and the police and/or the FBI investigate.
Hasn't this happened recently with the so called mortgage adjustment industry and the credit card interest reduction scams where most of them took your money and did nothing. Those industries used phone, email and mail for their scams.
I don't see where this requires a new law. Just another case where politicians have no idea about technology. To the uninitiated and non technical people it looks as if the politicians are actually doing something. Don't get me going about Andrew Cuomo and Newsgroups. |
