Online scamming is a vast, sophisticated and fast-growing global enterprise that compares in size and scope to the illegal drug industry. Except that in many ways it is worse. As our investigation finds, nobody is safe from Scam Inc econ.st/4gvEhdm

My latest for @msnbc.com: Trump is unprecedented, sure, but the less palatable truth: Trump is precedented, too.
