The CERT-CC at Carnegie-Mellon University’s (CMU) Software Engineering Institute (SEI) is the very first Computer Emergency Response Team in the world. The Cordination Center (CERT-CC) was created after the Morris worm hit the web in the late 1980s. The “CERT” name is owned by CMU and is leased for use to the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (and other governments).
The U.S. Federal Bureau of Investigation investigates Internet crime. You should report information about Internet crime to the FBI, here: http://www.ic3.gov/complaint/default.aspx
If something is bugging you and you don’t know where to get advice, please send me an email. I am not a member of law enforcement and will respect your privacy.
