OMG I was thinking about this. All the elderly people that are scammed out of their life savings & retirement...our gov't should be concerned about these citizens. Hell, Dr. Phil does a "Catfish" show like every 3 days!

Why don't we know about it? Clearly there is no emphasis put on this, at least by MSM. Think of the people who could learn from & avoid these scams if the proper attention were given to it. And I'm not talking about young people...it's the elderly who are vulnerable.

On foreign soil? They could pressure foreign governments to find and prosecute them.

Local news stations in particular do stories on internet scammers all the time.

I’m going to assume your wife’s friends are the ones watching Dr. Phil and telling you about his shows.

I assume they were on foreign soil, and I see you find that amusing for some reason.

Who was POTUS when that happened? Because that guy should have done something, right?
