Are we becoming Nigeria? Ringleader of $30M grandparent scam network preying on unsuspecting seniors finally arrested

Gareth West – Grandma Scammer

The ringleader of a $30 million scam network that preyed on seniors across a staggering 46 states has finally been arrested and now faces decades in prison for the alleged fraud.

Gareth West of Canada was taken in custody Friday for the scamming ring, in which callers phoned the older Americans, pretending they were their grandchildren who had been arrested or hurt and were desperate for cash, according to the Economic Times.

The worried elders were pressured to act fast and not tell other family members about the dire situation.

Welcome to Europe’s pro-Iranian madhouse

When gays and trans people want to ally with those who hang “infidels,” history laughs at them with tears in its eyes.

India Willoughby announces on X: “I could live in Iran. Better trans rights than in the UK and US.”

India is a trans rights activist. Her earlier tweet (“I never thought I’d say this, but #TeamIran”) triggered author J.K. Rowling, who doesn’t hold back: “India, fan of a regime that hates women and gays? How astonishing!” Rowling even offered to pay for her ticket to Iran.

Did You See Kamala Harris’ Fourth of July Post? Is the Woman Brain Dead Like Joe?

Former Vice President Kamala Harris is still coping right now. She lost the 2024 election to Donald Trump and has since been in the wilderness. Democrats are cool on her jumping back into the political ring, and her last election was a shambles. It doesn’t matter if she was the candidate from the get-go; she was awful. Her 2020 primary run was a preview of her not being ready for primetime—some people are just not meant to be president of the United States.
