It seems like nobody ever gets caught when somebody gets scammed, so Sandy was encouraged to see the FBI track down a scammer who took a victim for $60,000 in Pennsylvania. A friend with the Austin Police Department shared a staggering number: in one sector of town alone, there are around 10,000 open scam cases. Scammers often go after older people who are simply trying to be kind and helpful. Sandy reads advice from the FBI's Pittsburgh office: if anyone asks you to withdraw your life savings or buy gift cards, whether they claim to be your bank or law enforcement, call the police. The crew's rule is to hang up and call the number you know for your bank or credit card. Then Tricia tells the story of a call from someone posing as a Williamson County Sheriff's officer, with a warrant out for her arrest, and exactly how she answered him with her daughter's friends in the car.
