Maybe there is a scam I’d fall for. Probably involving pizza. But that the woman below fell for that is fucking ludicrous. There is so much clown-level shit that the government never does, that never, ever happens, that should’ve been completely obviously wrong — and she went right along with it. Can people not think? Can people not consider for once second how ridiculous what scammers are asking sounds?

How can she be a financial journalist and fall for this? And how can she not know how investigations are conducted, how police and federal agents actually contact you (hint: you’re never told you’re being investigated; they just show up and arrest or serve your ass), or that no one from the government asks you for fucking money, especially in cash or gift cards?

That scam has so many red flags it looks like a mayday parade in China. It boggles the mind how little people think.
