Just a question to anyone who cares to comment:
My daughter noticed 2-3 Middle Eastern men in her apt complex taking photos of the Microsoft building across the freeway in Dallas. She knows their apt. Their apt door has an extra lock on it.
I told her to report it to the FBI. She's too embarrassed because she thinks the FBI will think she is nuts.
Opinions?
She should notify the FBI.
Pluses and minuses aside, for all intents in purposes, now, with your public post, it de-facto HAS been reported to the FBI. I am sure they are reading this.
If she won't call, call and report what you now know.
You have freepmail.
Report it now.
No question here. Report it and fast! Better safe than sorry!
Then *you* report it.
Call FBI. Take careful note of anything unusual.
Additionally, take note of any information that may prove useful later on in the event of follow-up after a terrorist attack. License plates, height, weights, distinctive features, etc. The circumstances in which the pictures were taken, combined with any other suspicious activity - or lack thereof - may help determine whether this is a false alarm or not. It is better to be safe than sorry at this point.
Hypothetically, if the building were demolished in a controlled explosion later on, what would your conscience have to say if you said noting? Better to calmly call the FBI, state that you do not want to over-react to anything but there may potentially be something of concern that you think could be suspicious but you are not sure about and would rather be safe and their professional opinion is valued in this case.
Give them as much accurate background detail in as scientific a manner as possible as possible as to why you were suspicious in the first place and let them make the decision as to whether this should be looked into further or not.
She should absolutely report it to the FBI.
She can do it on the web, which makes it easy and convenient. She should give them all the info she has.
It's IMPORTANT!
