Answer to Question 1

FALSE

Answer to Question 2

Computer crime is defined as the act of using a computer to commit an illegal act. This broad definition of computer crime can include the following:
1. Targeting a computer while committing an offense-For example, someone gains unauthorized entry to a computer system in order to cause damage to the computer system or to the data it contains.
2. Using a computer to commit an offense-In such cases, computer criminals may steal credit card numbers from Web sites or a company's database, skim money from bank accounts, or make unauthorized electronic fund transfers from financial institutions.
3. Using computers to support a criminal activity despite the fact that computers are not actually targeted-For example, drug dealers and other professional criminals may use computers to store records of their illegal transactions.
