The investigator we met with said that he had 50 complaints he personally was dealing with, just in this year alone. They're out of control and infuriate me. And they're getting so much more intense and personal. I can't think like a criminal, digital or IRL. I can just fume! This one that got hubby and is going over so "well" here in the Midwest has them posing as FBI. Anyone prone to automatically submit to authorities is in danger, and hubby is scared to death of authority figures. Luckily, I'm just as prone to cuss them out as I am to give them a nice hello.
