Same thing happened to my mom today. Someone called her yesterday claiming to be a cousin from mexico coming to visit disneyland and visit us. He said he would call her the next day to let her know what city he was in since he would be driving. Today he called saying he had been in an accident becasue his brakes failed and he hit a family of 4 and one of the victims was a small girl that was sent to the hospital. He said his insurance wouldnt cover since it had expired 10 days ago so he had reached an agreement with the federales and the owner of the other veichle. He ask for 1000 dollars and requested us to transfer it using money gram or western union under this information:
Maricela Vasquez Loza
contact number was 01152-331-615-0304 which is from jalisco.
This was the daughter of the other driver since he said he couldnt move from the scene since the federales would not allow it.
we were fortunate enough to figure out it was a scam and didnt send the money.
EVERYONE BEWARE OF THESE TYPES OF SCAM! CALL OTHER RELATIVES TO FIND OUT IF IT IS TRUE BEFORE SENDING ANY MONEY!!
Lo mismo le pasó a mi mamá hoy en día. Alguien la llamó ayer que dice ser un primo de México que vienen a visitar Disneyland y nos visiten. Dijo que la llamaría al día siguiente para hacerle saber lo que la ciudad estaba en desde que se conduce. Hoy en día él llamó diciendo que había estado en un accidente debido a sus frenos fallaron y se encontró con una familia de 4 y una de las víctimas era una niña pequeña que fue enviado al hospital. Dijo que su cobertura de seguro molestaría, ya que había expirado hace 10 días por lo que había llegado a un acuerdo con los federales y el dueño de la veichle otros. Se piden 1.000 dólares y nos pidió que la transferencia mediante Money Gram o Western Union en esta información:
Maricela Vásquez Loza
número de contacto es 011523316150304, que es de Jalisco.
Esta era la hija del otro conductor ya que dijo que no podía pasar de la escena ya que los federales no se lo permitió.
tuvimos la suerte de descubrir que era una estafa y no enviar el dinero.
CUIDADO CON CADA UNO DE ESTOS TIPOS DE ESTAFA! CONVOCATORIA otros parientes para averiguar si es verdad antes de enviar cualquier dinero!
