Same thing happened to my mother and unfortunately my daughter answered and she was very upset thinking I was in danger. I just called the cops to file a report. Waiting for them to call back...
I received a call from 305-215-6652, which was a stranger telling me that my brother (who doesn't even live close to Miami) had hit his brother's car, and that his brother had beat up my brother (he hasn't met my brother -- this wouldn't happen) and had him hostage in the basement with a gun to his head, and that, unless I paid them money, he would shoot my brother in the head, especially if I called the police.
I assured him in no uncertain terms that he was [***] with the wrong family and that if he did have my brother hostage, his minutes left breathing were numbered. He hung up, and I called my brother, who assured me he was fine. I then called 911, who assured me this was a scam.
This is nothing to be afraid of, if you get a call like this. It's a scam, and 911 didn't want to chase the guy, as he likely had a disposable phone. If you get a call like this, don't get worked up. It's just some desperate punk trying to scare money out of you.
Be well, all, and keep your eyes open. And keep smiling! It's just life!
He called me twice. Two different days saying my brother had an accident and gave him my number to call me ( my brother was seating next to me when I got the call). I told him to stop calling and I was going to report him to the policy.
He called my husband today and told him he had our son, my husband was at the Doctor and had a terrible experience he believed him because he was doing several things at the same time. He requested $2,000 if not they were going to kill our son if he didn't die before due to the beating he had recieved. His doctor called and filed a police report and they just brushed it off, and simply said oh it's a scam. 305-215-6652 number belongs to Maria Brinones who resides at 1919 NW 15 Avenue Apt 702 Miami Florida 33125. It took me a few seconds to find that out yet it's sad the police will not do anything about this and this person is left to terrorize his victims,what a country!
Seriously? You are being harassed like that and the police won't do anything about it? WTF?? That is just giving these F------ A--holes free reign to terrorize anyone they want! Shame on this country!!!!!!
