    Default Ruined a scammer's day.

    Ruined a scammer's day. I work very closely with Veterans in need. Today I got a frantic call from a guy claiming to be a Veteran who was down on his luck and needed $450, otherwise he was getting kicked out of his motel. There's some more details, but we don't have time for BS. Anyhow, he didn't count on me being a 21 year police veteran and that he was going to get vetted out. I found he makes a living scamming churches and other organizations for "emergency money." I also found an outstanding warrant for his arrest in a nearby county. He's now living in the Graybar Motel.

    At least he won't have to worry about getting kicked out of that room for unpaid rent.

    Thank you for all that you do for our Brothers and Sisters. In this case I pray that this misguided person might get the help he needs and get back on the right track now that he has the time and place to reflect on his misdeeds. If not then I am glad that he wont be doing this for the near future and those that are out there (like yourself) can spend their time devoted to helping those that really need help and assistance.
