Re: unusual questioning
Those are not unusual questions from a law enforcement agency. They need to find out with whom they are dealing; the presence (or a lie about the presence) of a psych history tells them a lot. They also need to know if you have some serious money lying around that would make you a targeted victim of defrauders.
