I asked when was the last one, you decided to play that obtuse game and declare that there was no last one, knowing full well what I was asking. So, I ask again, when was the latest one, since there was no 'last' one?
It is almost like asking a man "When did you stop bating your wife?"
As I see the issue it is one of:
Most seem to me to be s**ms of one sort or another.
It may be a stretch.
It is not with out reason to consider what the banks role is in these schemes.
Historically using the post office has been a criminal act in using the postal service to aid in theses s**ms.
The one that comes to mind was one that:
A person gets a letter in the mail with a list of names.
Maybe say six names.
They are to send some money to the first on the list & add their information to the end of the list & mail them out. (How letters many they send out escapes my memory.)
I think it was chain letters a form of a Ponzi Scheme.
I can not venture as to the real reason this person wished to look deeper in to the issue.
It could well be that the parties in evolved in these s**ms are leaving a trail of information that can be followed by banking information.
There is a law that calls for attention of any t***sfer of $10,000 or more in cash or check.
A while back I sold a building & the t***saction was held up for seven days.
I have a small online stock market account in both mine & my wife's' name.
Deposits to the account have to be from a joint account.
All in all I think you are a bit paranoid on his issue.
To look closer on the use or banking in these s**ms is not with out merit.
I think you need to express in more detail just why you bring this issue up.
