I saw a 20/20 report a few years ago about the scams. 20/20 had no problem at all meeting with a scammer, then finding locations where a dozen or more scammers are all on the phone or online ripping off suckers from anywhere they can. Can these people not be stopped?
If those scam gangs are operated like a typical Third World syndicate, I'm sure there's government "permission" for such operations. For a % cut, of course. For those that don't wish to payment for "permission"--they are made posterboys for the government's crackdown on fraud/crime.
