That is extortion.
Your sister should contact the FBI, as it is unlikely that she is the scammers' only target, and this crime likely crosses state (or international) borders.
- moloch-hai 4y agoIf it crosses international borders (probably) the FBI is stopped. Actually the amounts cited are well below the FBI's interest threshold in any case.
- gamblor956 4y agoNo, the FBI is not precluded from investigating cross-border crimes. They just have to work with their foreign counterparts on the investigation. And the amounts cited are not below the FBI's interest threshold; the whole point of my comment is that their are probably other victims, which makes this a larger crime than just the OP's system and probably involves sophisticated or organized criminals. This makes it exactly the kind of crime the FBI loves to investigate.

- moloch-hai 4y agoFBI has relationships with certain countries. Criminals prefer to use countries they don't. For reasons.
- gamblor956 4y agoOnly 4 countries (Micronesia, North Korea, Palau and Tuvalu) are not participants in INTERPOL, and criminal organizations generally don't operate out of them...
