BBC NEWS | World | Americas | FBI wiretaps cut for unpaid bills

Quote:

The FBI has had some of its telephone wiretaps disconnected because it failed to pay its bills on time, a US government audit has found.

The Department of Justice said some of the agency's surveillance operations had been jeopardised by late payments and an "antiquated" accounting system.

The audit also revealed an FBI employee had admitted stealing $25,000 (£12,745) intended for undercover phone services.

Now that's just funny....

Instead of "we are hiding Osama in our basement" they get "I'm sorry, your phone service has been discontinued. For inquiries dial ....."

The FBI is no better then college students, ha!
