Asked if any sports gambling had been done on his computer. Anyone else hear of this? Is the FBI seriously wasting their time and going through peoples checking account and calling their house? Pretty insane...
I actually know an FBI agent and he's calling BS on you or your friend's story....if they had *any* reason to want any information on your friend's computer they wouldn't have called. They would have shown up and asked nicely if they could take your computer and look around for a few days. If you said "no", they would come back with a search warrant for the computer. They would have inventoried your friend's equipment, complete with serial numbers, and taken it back to their lab to check out on their own time. As soon as they were done they would have brought it back. If they got any evidence off of it, you wouldn't know until you were indicted for something or another. He said he could get me a copy of the exact form they have to fill out for receipt of the computer equipment if I wanted to see one.
I also asked the guy if his organization was going after sports gamblers or poker players and he laughed and responded sarcastically "oh yeah, that's our TOP priority"....
I agree that this belongs in the rubber room.....if you get off on spreading paranoia with your ridiculous stories and least bone up on simple law enforcement procedures if you expect people to believe your tall tales...
