Got this phone call today. It was a voice message. Came home from work to call the person back and wish him death, the phone is already disconnected. Steve Martin, heavy Indian accent, total POS.
Basically the scam is they ask you to buy a bunch of gift cards, then scratch them off and read them to him over the phone.(They're apparently decent about cashing them asap so you'll lose your money if you do.) Yes I know someone that actually did this. (No, not me.)
