Yes, spoofing has been around and used frequently on older folks who seem vulnerable . Spoofing is notoriously used to trick folks to think the call is from Social Security, you bank/credit union or credit card company. They will request information that those companies/agencies already have. They just want our into so they can get at it. I have never had a call the imitated a friend but suspect I have had some from money focused companies. Criminals used to go after us, now they are going after our financial information.
