This morning, Aug. 22, 2011 my wife received a call from a male stating that he was his nefew from Mexico my wife did not recognized his voice and he starting making jokes until my wife said are nefews name and he agreed. Late he calls and asks for money because he was in a car accident. ITS A SCAM!!
J'ai reçu un appel de quelqu'un que je ne connaissais pas et qui prétendait me connaître et s'annonçait pour venir chez moi "avec un cadeau pour me donner une surprise". De toute évidence, je ne connaissais pas cette personne et d'ailleurs elle m'annonçait qu'ils étaient trois... Comme elle refusait de s'identifier clairement, j'ai décidé de ne pas les recevoir.
Recently happened to my wife also... it may have been the same person, definitely it was the same story... "aunt, aunt... don`t you recognaize me it`s me... wow I can`t beleive you forgot about me already?" my wife asked who is this? several times, where are you calling from? suddenly he replied: you forgot where my uncle is from? my wife found it suspicious and the "scammer" when he did not get answer, decided to hang up!
