Does the linked article say anything to support the point you made above? It's a study about the emotional impact of fraud, which I can tell you from personal experience, without reading the study, is pretty overwhelming, for many of the reasons cited in the study. This is why I don't want 419 scammers to be able to scrape identifying info about my elderly relatives off of their email. As for the cops to whom you refer, who aren't mentioned in the article you mentioned, they would probably benefit from reading the RFC we've been talking about writing, since I suspect some of the information they need would be captured in it. -- Sent from Whiteout Mail - https://whiteout.io My PGP key: https://keys.whiteout.io/[email protected]
