Scammers come in all shapes, sizes, races, colors, breeds, creeds, and sexes.
And since most US companies have been sending OUR private information over to India, scammers have become a billion dollar business.
A lot of scammers are actually legal companies during the day, and illegal scammers at night.
Some scammers work from home, while others work out of call center environments.
It's easy enough to catch most of them that set up shop here inside the US borders, but it's near difficult to do so when they are located in other countries.
Most scammers today have access to ALL of our private and medical information. This is because American companies have been sending all of our information overseas for at least the past couple of decades, and it's getting worse.
Some of the billing and call center companies in India are in fact legit. BUT....they have scammer moles working for them, that get OUR private information hot off their computer files. And they give this info to the scammers they work for.
DO NOT BE FOOLED! India does NOT have the same laws the US does in regards to privacy protection. They do not have HIPAA. The government does NOT regulate privacy information within companies. And scammers make MILLIONS of dollars a year, which a lot goes to paying off local political officials so these scammer operations can "legally" do what they do and not have to uproot shop and move somewhere else.
There are many awesome videos on Youtube about how scammers operate, what they say, how they speak, and how they get you to part with your money. It would be in your own best interest to watch some of these types of videos, so you can familiarize yourself with this global "scamdemic" (see what I did there? LOL).
Joking aside, this is important stuff in this age of super HD technologies. It would be something worth thinking about to learn all you can about how these scammers operate, and pass this information on to any senior citizens you know, your kids, or anyone you know that is too trusting of other people.
