| 93 yr old Dad scammed out of $6,000 |

and the perp was caught! told my Dad he was nephew of neighbor down the street and neighbor needed $$... so Dad had this guy drive him to the bank and took the money out and gave it to him. Am so relieved something worse didn't happen as kidnapping charges...omg http://www.lasvegassun.com/news/2009/apr/22/alleged-scammers-arrested-neighbor-assistance-sche |

to donate $$ to get them on their feet. Life long dem who thought he wouldn't live long enough to see a dem in Whitehouse again. He translated Obama brochures into spanish to walk into the worst places in Vegas to give to hispanics. He's my hero and these people make me SICK.
