Mind Over Murder

Nina Innsted, host of the "Already Gone" podcast and the "Missing in Michigan" Facebook page joins "Mind Over Murder" hosts Bill Thomas and Kristin Dilley to discuss why some missing persons posts on social media turn out to be scams, why fake notices like these hurt real efforts to find missing people, and how to avoid these scams. Why do people run scams like this? What can families of missing people do to let people know their posts are legitimate? How can we avoid such scams? Join us for a fascinating conversation.
