[QUOTE="moreluck, post: 3979453, member: 1246"] [SIZE=5][COLOR=#660000]Scam (not new)…..[/COLOR][/SIZE] [COLOR=#660000] Received a call yesterday and the caller ID read "Mercy Hospital". I ignore a lot of calls, but 'hospital' could be someone I know. I didn't recognize the voice (male) . I asked who it was...he said "your oldest." My oldest is female, so I was a little leery. I only have one son and I have been estranged from him for over 25 years. (another story for another time). The caller said he was in the hospital, had wrecked his car and got a DUI in Miami-Dade county and needed me to "bail him out". My son doesn't live in FL. Caller said he was attending a friend's wedding. When I refused, he called me the "B" word and I hung up. I told my daughter about it......she still has some minimal contact with her brother and she checked it out. The call was a scam for $$$. It was not my son at all. I have a person in Miami-Dade county who lost a phone awhile back...….never reported it (millennial). I'm sure now that this person called all the numbers hoping someone would send money. Be aware of who's on the phone!![/COLOR] [/QUOTE]
