Slam a Cyberscam By Megan McAuliffe, ZDNet Australia April 20, 2001 URL: http://www.zdnet.com.au/news/soa/Slam-a-Cyberscam/0,139023165,120216849,00.htm
The Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC) has introduced a new Web site called 'Slam A Cyberscam', a service in which consumers can have their say about illegal conduct on the Net. Slam A Cyberscam is an automated Web site, where consumers can lodge complaints about illegal on-line selling practices. The information will help the ACCC track unlawful e-commerce sites operating on the Net. "Businesses must remember that consumers have the same rights online as they do offline. These rights cannot be denied or over-ridden," ACCC Chairman Professor Allan Fells said. The site can be accessed thought the ACCC web site at www.accc.gov.au/ecomm/cyber/.
