That vid was hard to watch and I feel terrible for that poor woman’s friends and family.

There is no “bottom” to stupidity. Thank goodness we have amazing technology that makes it more clear than ever…

Why aren’t the feds doing something useful like cracking down on these phone scams? It’s completely out of hand. Everyone keeps their old number after they move now, so legitimate out of area calls are very common these days.

Ten years ago, a local person called my business saying a very aggressive telemarketer had called him using my phone number! I bet that scammer wasn’t even in my state. That’s federal jurisdiction. What have they been doing about it for the last ten years? Now someone is dead because of it. Sure they didn’t pull the trigger, but they basically terrorized that old man.

Elderly scams can be stopped cold if they just stopped answering calls from unknown numbers and stopped pretending they can safely use the Internet. Most twenty years olds can’t safely use the Internet as that demo is getting scammed at higher rates than the seniors are.

Ed McMahon is dead and no women are going to pursue you online for sex. That covers 99% of the driving motivation behind answering those calls and playing on the Internet.

Mr Brock is an example of how not to handle a situation.
It seems, he was a walking time bomb.
A shame an innocent person lost their life and for absolutely nothing.
