James Hoyer’s lead investigator Al Scudieri was recently interviewed for an article about the abundance of fraud complaints in Florida by Robert Trigaux of the Tampa Bay Times.
Al’s theory as to why fraud is so prevalent in Florida is that:
Florida’s not only the third most populated, its population is different… I think we have a more affluent, elderly population. With a heavier concentration of those demographics in this state, they are the most susceptible…They are the ones bad people want to target.
