Good point. On the other hand, if she's missing maybe someone knows her or recognizes her.

Thanks for that!
Yeah, I have heard of that scam. And I think it's a real thing, but not in this case--at least for that scam. Because my vid shows her walking up and walking away alone.
But I think I've finally relaxed and am not as worried for her as I was. Lots of houses here. Lots of stores down the street less than a block away. And she didn't run to or from my door. So whatever it was, it def didn't appear life threatening as in she was in immediate danger.
I have two cars in my driveway as well. Truck and a jeep. So I don't think anyone was scouting my house thinking I'm little old lady. I've watched the video over and over. No torn clothes. Hair was up in a neat bun. Wasn't crying.
But the out of breath part and the saying she needed help because something terrible happened is what sorta is sticking with me. Even tho, since I wrote the post and cleared my thoughts a bit, who actually says that outloud when talking to themselves?! And the lack of urgency in the walking to and from my door is strange. But also, I know that people under stress react differently, so..
What does disappoint me tho, is how little the police seemed to worry about it. They just didn't see it as a big deal. I played the vid. They agreed it was strange. But no one asked for copy of my vid or screen shot the vid or anything. I checked missing persons site for my area. Checked police blotter. No missing people that match this. So I guess I'll just have to accept I did what I did. And if something does happen, then I have a time stamp, so I'm saving the vid.
Ugh, I probably have it purchased thru my school. I forgot to check link to make sure it was free access. I'll delete. Sorry!
Nah, you admitted it. All good now.
I have cam footage from both my driveway leading up to my porch and my porch. No one is with her as she comes up to porch or as she walks away from porch. She may still have been a scammer, but it wasn't that scam.
