Thanks for heads up. The scam message I remember the most was left while my phone rang while I was unloading Costco groceries in a deluge of rain and was getting ready to drive home. I am still getting my bearings in my new community. I get in the car, glad to be out of the pelting rain to hear an ominous voice tell me if I don’t call back now the police will be sent out to arrest me and lock me up. So many things were giveaways it was a scam but it was distressing and annoying.

The part that troubles me the most is that it is proven that as people get older they are more susceptible for a variety of reasons to scams. Obviously they get enough positive hits or they wouldn’t keep doing it.
