"An AR would have taken weeks and would have just gotten dismissed because it involves resident-to-resident transactions which LL simply doesn't get involved in." That sentence keeps coming back to me in my nightmares  Fraudster emptying peoples' accounts - LL have no way for residents to report this to them other than dumping it into a sea of non-fraud ARs. A dedicated Fraud-reporting channel would no doubt be subjected to non-fraud incomings, but what about the cost/benefit. What happens to people who make in appropriate 999/911/112 whatever emergency cals in RL? Where I come from they get an attitude-adjustment opportunity.

I think that did ultimately get resolved, but I don't remember hearing the rest of the story.
