@epicGodz . You are right to a vast extent . The amount of money that needs to be invested in investigating far outweighs the result it might yield .you are totally right about extracting a warrant based on these assumptions . you are right about the availability of prepaid connections on any assumed identity . i don't contest any of it or the fact when u stated, Scared = no money
. My assumption and views were based on the fact that a lot of people does cashouts in the same city/town and repeat atms (when the city/town is small , the fraud relatively appears big and the above scene can be enacted,) ). And even though triangulation isn't accurate to exactly where u are standing , there is other ways to snoop on people/mark . The phone companies will be more than willing to present with all the call history of the suspected number if LE request for it . This could vary from country to country , but i doubt any provider will Object to such a Request .
So i don't carry a phone. That way i have my own Peace of mind
But your insight to the matter discussed is Great . i wish i could have +ve rep u .
