So did Krebs report all this?
I'm surprised to see so much talk congratulating Krebs on his skilful fact-finding, and seemingly no mention of informing the authorities.
- lonelappde 7y agoWhat was the crime under the law?
- MaxBarraclough 7y agoThe offence of deliberately scamming people, of course. This comment [0] points out that it's likely against the law in the USA. (I think the relevant law is at the federal level.) It seems likely that Scotland's laws are similar. I get the sense that a lot of people think it's obvious the law can do nothing, so there's no point even reporting the guy. I don't see the sense in this. I imagine scammers benefit greatly from this kind of thinking. [0] https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=22677118 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=22677118
