That's why I would recommend recording your phone conversations with
government agencies. You properly notify them that you're recording
with an explanation that it's for your records and get them to
verify their name, time/date and if they are the correct person to
be talking to about your situation.


Many states do not requie two-party consent to record. I don't think
there's a federal law on point.


My thought is to record them with their full knowledge so there is no
chance for an accusation of underhandedness or any violation of law. I
know prosecutors like to make up laws as they go about their daily
business or more correctly try to fit an imagined offense to an
existing law.


Good point, but if they know they're being recorded, they'll be more
circumspect. I prefer them to say "I should take two steps back and put ten
bullets in your f***ing chest!"



Just my luck, the government criminal terrorist with a badge would do
it. I'm sure a firearm I never knew I owned would be found in my
lifeless hand and there would be no sign of my recording device and the
government owned recording device would have a mysterious malfunction
rendering it useless. My luck always seems to run like that.
