Action Fraud staff sneer at ‘moron’ victims and nap on the job | News | The Times

Action Fraud staff sneer at ‘moron’ victims and nap on the job | News | The Times: Action Fraud is overseen by City of London Police which specialises in fraud investigations. "However, four years ago the force outsourced the service and phone reports are now taken by low-wage staff at Concentrix, a private company, based at a call centre in Gourock, an hour’s drive west of Glasgow on the banks of the River Clyde.

As online scams soar, fraud now makes up more than a third of crimes. However, as few as one in 50 reports leads to a suspect being caught and victims repeatedly say that their cases are abandoned with no explanation."

How Will the Coronavirus End? - The Atlantic

How Will the Coronavirus End? - The Atlantic: "One could also envisage a future in which America learns a different lesson. A communal spirit, ironically born through social distancing, causes people to turn outward, to neighbors both foreign and domestic. The election of November 2020 becomes a repudiation of “America first” politics. The nation pivots, as it did after World War II, from isolationism to international cooperation. Buoyed by steady investments and an influx of the brightest minds, the health-care workforce surges. Gen C kids write school essays about growing up to be epidemiologists. Public health becomes the centerpiece of foreign policy. The U.S. leads a new global partnership focused on solving challenges like pandemics and climate change."
