| Internet Crime Boss |
The INTERNET, Instant Messaging, Text Messages, Facebook and other social media may be the catalyst to the creation of a new wave of crime, "FLASH-MOB CRIMINALS". Not to say that these communications and social networks are responsible, it's being used as a tool to get the message out.

What is a FLASH - MOB CRIMINAL? Through social media they come together at a designated time, date and place, specificly a commercial retail area. They gather then raid a store, rush into the store, rape the racks and gather-up everything they can carry, bringing their own bags and suitcases, then as fast as they arrive, they leave and disburse. This is a surprise to workers and store owners.With little time to react, and also concerned about they're own safety, most workers, managers and owners, cower in the corners for safety. After the short pilferage by the MOB, few minutes at most, then the workers call the police.
The police respond, do what they do, take reports, view surveillance video, disseminate it out to the local media and investigate or just go back to what they do, RESPOND to the next issue.
This problem is not isolated. It's happening across America even in Canada. From California, to Chicago, New York and Florida..this is the new crime mob dilemma.
HOW DO WE GET THIS UNDER CONTROL?
THE POLICE CAN"T BE EVERYWHERE!!!
BUSINESS OWNERS NEED TO JOIN TOGETHER TO REDUCE THE INCIDENT. SOMETHING LIKE A "CRIME WATCH" FOR BUSINESS DISTRICTS!!!
