"After a 10-year-old girl reported an ice-cream-truck driver abducted her in his vehicle, police in New York City began investigating. However, “there was no abduction,” NYPD spokeswoman Lt. Jessica McRorie told McClatchy News on Sept. 5. The man met with the child on Sunday, Sept. 4, in Staten Island after they were messaging on social media, McRorie said. The girl lied to the ice-cream-truck driver about her age, police say. The child’s mother called police around 4:30 p.m. to report that her daughter said she was abducted by the man, PIX11 reported." https://www.yahoo.com/news/10-old-reports-ice-cream-144748186.html ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=didIphYefmk

"New York City police are on the hunt Monday for three suspects accused of luring men to motels under the premise of meeting a woman before bounding them with duct tape and robbing them of their clothing, cash and personal property. The five incidents happened from July 7 to 26 in the city’s Bronx borough involving victims between the ages of 31 and 48, investigators say. "In each incident the male victim communicates via Facebook with an alleged female and agrees to meet her at a motel," the NYPD said in a statement obtained by Fox News Digital. "The victim proceeds to go to the motel at the agreed upon time where he meets an unidentified female." https://www.yahoo.com/news/york-city-robbery-ring-lured-133255888.html ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eXAYDlC3Hb0

"A Berlin-based remote worker at a multinational tech company who has secretly worked from the Canary Islands and Portugal told Insider the key to pulling the scheme off had been respecting his colleagues, working hard, and resisting any urges to show off. "I didn't tell anybody, even colleagues who I'm friends with outside of work," he said, adding that he doesn't have any social media. "It doesn't feel the best always, but that's the only way I can maintain this lifestyle." He said he uses his personal computer with a VPN to ensure the company can't track his location and always has the computer's clock set to Berlin time in case he has to spontaneously share his screen. He said he's also aware of any background noises that could give away his location, like the tropical birds in the Canary Islands. "There's no birds in Berlin chirping in the middle of winter," he said." https://www.msn.com/en-us/travel/news/4-remote-workers-who-ve-secretly-worked-from-abroad-without-their-employers-knowing-describe-how-they-keep-up-the-charade/ar-AA130RW7?rc=1&ocid=winp1taskbar&cvid=b18b9331bcaa479cc03b2d53fab668df ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H7QlDRbQlWM
