mail surprise

The certified letter from the attorney general (that I had to pick up in person, grumble grumble) did not exactly inspire warm fuzzy thoughts, though I couldn't imagine anything I'd done to prompt scrutiny.

The first thing I pulled out of the envelope was a check for $20. The second thing was a letter thanking me for my help in nailing the telemarketing scum that ignored the do-not-call list. (Ok, the letter didn't say "scum".) The check is my share of the fine.

Wow, who knew? First that the do-not-call list would actually be enforced, and second, that people who report violations might get something out of doing so?
