It bothers me that there are alot of people like my aunt mostly elderly who would fall for this. Makes me mad.

So now you know I hate terrorists and con artists. No surprise I worked 18 years in Corrections, eh?
No surprise 'gills, from your posts you seem like a good person. Corrections eh? I'll take a wild guess and say you were a parole officer for 18 years.

I agree a con who'd would take advantage of an elderly or sick person is definitely one of the lower forms of life.

I found this particular slant on one of the internet's oldest scams interesting because instead of just taking advantage of people's greedy bad side, they're trying to get at their good side too. If scumbags like these put as much thought into making an honest living as they did scamming, they'd probably be wealthy.

Stay warm up there.
