South America, and Canada etc. Thanks

Isn't the Penny Brown thing a hoax?

This is what I found at www.snopes.com

I don't know. That would be great if it was a hoax.

Amber Alerts get instantly added to our corporate e-mails for all the plants across the country. So I was thinking it was fairly reliable.

I see that this one was from South Carolina so I guess after all this I don't know what the So Cali thing is about.

*shrug* People can change wording to make it seem legit. As snopes points out, there is nothing stating where she was last seen, what she was wearing, parental info, even what city she's missing from.
