Spoke to random person doesn't mean you know who you spoke to. You'd need additional information to confirm who it was and given all the called got no answer, changed their story etc, that's not anything concrete.

If I call the police from a burner phone and tell them a bank was robbed but not which bank or when, how much time should they spend checking every bank? Nothing we have so far is solid enough to do anything that would qualify as an investigation.
