I got one, only it was my cousin who supposedly had sent it. They used basically the same thing you have said. It said they were in England and got mugged coming out of their hotel. They found info from Facebook. My DH called my cousin's wife to inform her. She said a lot of people had also called her. These people contacted me in facebook chat. I threw questions to them asking certain questions only my cousin knew. I tripped them up. I said, I want to make sure you are who you say you are. When I asked what kind of work do you do now. They told me they were laid off. I copied what they said, forward it to facebook, and disconnected from them
