Description

In the ’80s and ’90s, fraudulent telemarketing is booming, often bleeding senior citizens dry. Law enforcement is nearly powerless to stop it, until Tim Healy, a zany young FBI agent out of Salt Lake City, comes up with an ingenious undercover plan to scam the scammers and beat them at their own game.

Buffalo, NY was mentioned here. That particular 1990s operation was run by Rocco F. Guadagna and Peter Gerace. The latter is currently under Federal indictment and trial for running a strip club/drug operation. The case includes a corrupt DEA Agent, a NY State Supreme Court Judge who allegedly committed suicide, and two federal witnesses who died.
