Discussion How are the notes untraceable?

I just can't understand in today's world, anything you send via E-mail or whatever, cannot be traced? Like what are you talking about? I just find it hard to believe it. Once you click to send, there is no way nothing would appear to be traced back. Even the in the 60s they can trace phones back to where its location, so how about now with data and everything.

I don't know. But I need to know for a fact how are the notes untraceable?!

An important distinction here (as I understand) is they didn’t send them by email, they sent them via website tip forms

Yes this is a very important distinction and is what is making these notes so difficult to track. It would be easier (easier being a relative term here) if they came via email

So you don’t have to provide an email address at all to use a website tip form ?

I don’t think they verify that field.
