Like I said we won't know if S-O-N was on the level or a scammer. There was alot of things that wound this up bad. The lying, he was new, mistrust, misinformation and just not knowing and yes the PI's report really got things going. All of this led to the snow ball effect which caused alot of people to get scared. Maybe next time.
