Thinks s/he gets paid by the post
MIL (86) gets a phone call from someone pretending to be my son. "Got in an accident,..... the lawyer is here with me,.... it doesn't sound like me cause I broke my nose,... need money." You get the drift.
Thank God MIL has her wits, and SIL lives there (another loooong story), so they caught on quick and hung up.
But this guy was good! Knew all the names, knew SIL lived there. Had other details that gave MIL and SIL a moment to pause. This was NOT a Nigerian Prince kind of call.
MIL has a hard time understanding that all this info is out there, and if someone targets you, they can get a TON of personal info, for a small fee.
Just another warning to be on the watch for your elder friends.
