The NSA is supposed to be protecting us from foreign threats. One must ask how many grandmothers kept their savings because NSA snooping caught the scammers?
Considering that scammers use phone, emails and usually Western Union - all supposedly under the purview of the NSA and they are supposed to work for the American people. One has to ask how many grandmothers bilked of their savings got it back as a result of NSA activities?
These scammers may actually be fronts for the "bad guy" so.... is there value for the citizen or is the NSA just big brother watching?
