Is Planting a Virus in a Computer a Federal Crime?
I am 50% owner of Buy and Ship International. Recently our site had a virus placed on it which completely rendered it useless, and it Norton has given our site an unsafe rating with 79 threats. Yesterday our entire site was wiped off. I contacted our dedicated server people, Single Hop, and they were able to obtain the ftp log and proof of the party who did this. It was Autxloo, a company we were going to do business with, but we declined to do so. What are our legal options? We now have everyone afraid to go to our site. Should we report this to the FBI? I am waiting for legal advice.
