How are about we require background checks on everyone purchasing cell phones now? (Sarcasm)
Sounds like another fishing expedition by the Feds to me.
Is that you again, Achmed?

Maybe, but FNC is reporting two busts, Ohio and Michigan, one with 1k phones, the other with 100-300, the 1k phone guy also had airport security information (possibly [my speculation] the type you get by going to the web, query the airline, and print out).
The use of these phones as detonators is possible. That they represent a difficult to trace mode of communication is more worrysome. Prepaid disposable phones used in conjunction with international calling cards...
kudos to the Ohio WalMart clerk who twigged to the hinky 80 phone purchase!!!
Good on ya!
Stay alert
Foxnews just reported three more arrests similar to this one. The "FISH" are biting!
LLS
10 cell phones is fishing.
1000 (bought at retail!) IS not fishing.
