AG’s Cyber Fraud Enforcement Unit

In early 2023, Attorney General Ashley Moody created the Cyber Fraud Enforcement Unit. The unit consists of criminal and civil attorneys in the Florida Attorney General’s Office who work with Florida Department of Law Enforcement (FDLE) analysts and other law enforcement agencies to make arrests in high-tech cybercrime and seize cryptocurrency and other property.

Members of the cyber fraud enforcement unit work closely with the FDLE Cybercrime Office (FCO). The FCO investigates complex cybercrimes, protects technological and telecommunication systems in support of criminal investigations, helps local technical investigations, and trains investigators.
