In reply to Dustin. That sheriff's deputy said he had just come off a 24-hr shift and was in a different dept - could not help us anyway. (I think he was very tired) But he did assure us it was a scam and told us to go home and report it to our local police, which we did. The perpetrator could have been in a another state (very poor phone connection), for all we know, and had an accomplice who would meet us for the money.

In reply to JoAnne.

@ JoAnne:

Don’t know if it ever came up, but it might have been a better idea to take that sheriff with you to wherever the scammer wanted you to go than to hang up and go home.

Odds are you’ll never hear from that clown again. No telling about his friends and cohorts.

In reply to Frank. @ Frank: If it was a matter of child pornography, odds are the perpetrators were the FBI or state counterparts. Wouldn't have taken very many waking hours to find that.

In reply to Florida Action Committee. Do we know of any case— any at all, anywhere— in which the perpetrators of these fake LE calls to registrants have been identified or prosecuted?

In reply to Frank. You would think they would apply effort into finding the perpetrators of the offenses in the images too.

DUH. Then why are they permitting people to do so. You would think that they would have enough intelligence to try to find out who is behind the scam and go after them. I am sure if it was a matter of sexual child pornography they would invest every waking hour to find the perpetrators. Oh I’m sorry I thought they cared about their citizen welfare. My bad.
