There’s a litle town called Stamford, in the state of Connecticut. There is a little unsettling disturbance known as ruthless gangsters and dirty police officers. 

Rogue Town is the true story of Stamford, Connecticut, a city that from 1965 through 1985 was under the stranglehold of organized crime and run by corrupt officials, it was known as one of the most corrupt cities in the country. Disgusted by what was happening in his home town, Stamford police officer Vito Colucci vowed he would do whatever it took to bring the corruption to light.

It was a decision that eventually placed him in an undercover role, wearing a wire to gather evidence against senior officers in the Stamford Police Department, and nearly cost him his life.

When the dust settled, serious wrongdoing in eight city departments was exposed, including the police department, where a rackets commander was taking $1,800 a week from the Gambino crime family, and a detective sergeant was running the largest drug ring in Southern Connecticut out of police headquarters. Fifteen city and state officials resigned or were fired; police officers, other officials and organized crime figures, were indicted and convicted. And a young reporter for the Stamford Advocate named Anthony Dolan won a Pulitzer Prize for his 75-part series on municipal corruption.

However, what happened in Stamford , Connecticut, reverberated far beyond that city and state. It served as the catalyst for President Ronald Reagan’s initiative against the American Mafia and the establishment of the President’s Commission on Organized Crime.

A young lady from Stamford purchased the book in May, 2023 – it is now December, 2023 and the book has not been moved to her current Kindle. You see the Amazon offered the 2-Factor Autorization.

To enable two-factor authentication on your Amazon account, please follow these steps:

  1. Sign in to your Amazon account and navigate to the “Account & Lists” drop-down menu.
  2. Click on “Your Account” and select “Login & security settings.”
  3. Scroll down to the “Advanced Security Settings” section and click on “Edit” next to “Two-Step Verification.”
  4. Follow the prompts to set up two-factor authentication using a phone number, authenticator app, or other options provided.
  5. Once set up, you’ll be prompted to enter the additional verification code when logging in from unrecognized devices or browsers for added account security.

By enabling two-factor authentication, you can enhance the security of your Amazon account and protect your personal information and purchases.

Sounds great right?! Until -you change your phone number and then the 2 Factor Authorization becomes challenging. The user changed her number and Amazon could not (so they say) verify the user thus she had to create a new account, note: she used the exact same email. As a result all of her history for purchases was lost, all receipts were lost. For 9 months she has not been able to get (1) book “Rogue Town” could not be transferred to her new account. Bottom line – remember net worth is Amazon’s estimated net worth is in the hundreds of billions.

Question: How much would Amazon loose if they had simply moved/added a copy of the $8.50 book to the customer’s Kindle account that at this point houses 99 books?
