Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI)

The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) investigates criminal counterfeiting, piracy, and other federal crimes. You can report suspicions concerning the manufacture or sale of counterfeit or pirated goods to the FBI by contacting your local FBI Office and asking to speak with the Duty Complaint Agent. To obtain contact information for your local FBI office, you can call (202) 324-3000 or by visiting us here. If you suspect products for sale on the Internet are counterfeit or pirated, you can report your suspicions to the FBI Internet Fraud Complaint Center via the Internet. An electronic complaint form is available here.

Intellectual property crime, such as copyright piracy, trademark counterfeiting, or Internet fraud, like any other crime, should be reported to appropriate law enforcement investigative authorities at the local, state, federal, or international levels, depending on the scope of the crime.  Citizens or companies aware of federal crimes should report them to local offices of the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI).  The FBI has offices throughout the United States.  In general, federal crimes may be reported to the local FBI office by a telephone call and by requesting the “Duty Complaint Agent.”
