I have had constituents caught in that fraud and paid money to bodies that were demanding it from them. They couldn't legally force them to pay it, but people get that notice. They get afraid. A lot of the time it's seniors, and maybe their kids or grandkids have been on their laptop or on their iPad. All of a sudden they're being sent this, so they just go and pay it. It is a real concern for people who are having fraud committed on them.
