WINONA, Minn. – Police were contacted by an East Side person about sending something like $13,000 to an online correspondent in Nigeria over a period of 2-1/2 years. The money was sent in mail orders, supposedly for airfare, food and lodging, police were told. This was from 2017 to 2019. Police offered tips about reporting scans to an international monitoring agency but that locally they could do nothing. Subpoena power stops at the order.
