Honestly, I would fall into this trap.

The federal agent genuinely sounds like she is a person having car trouble, this trap would work on me because I guess I too am a fundamentally decent person.

I wouldn't be so sure, I live in the Minneapolis suburbs and work in a more rural area, there are plenty of people out here who are brainwashed by right wing propaganda. They'll be turning in their neighbors for thought crimes the moment the regimes asks them to.
