That's a shame. A lot of law enforcement still is not computer savvy. They'll do a police report if a wallet or purse is stolen, but not if some supposedly nebulous information is taken via software.

If you really wanted to press the issue, you could snapshot your browsing history and it would contain the URLs that you posted info to. While that won't contain all the data that was given away, it's as good as a witness's statement that something of value was taken and it's actual material evidence (albeit falsifiable) about the incident unlike a simple verbal statement...that is if the LEOs new anything about computers.
