> Interpol hardly does anything by comparison and have much less doggedness (it was the US who found Bin Laden for example). It typically helps the US, not actually initiates the investigation. At best its like a sidekick. That's a strange take on a strange article, because the articles is mistaken in that Interpol "tried to combat scammers" - it can't, Interpol is an organization to coordinate cooperation between national law enforcement agencies. They are essentially a large clearing house where national LEAs exchange information and can use databases. Interpol has no agents or investigators. Which makes your take strange too, because you sound very confident that it's "at best" a sidekick, because it doesn't do as much as the FBI and IRS. But knowing what Interpol is and what it does (or rather: what it doesn't), it's pretty clear that you don't know what you're talking about. The article has found its target, your patriotism was tingled and you accepted its premises but felt it necessary to proclaim that the US does much more than the organization that doesn't do that type of work at all.
