This phone number called my mother in law stating they were a lawyers office wanting $4000 to help clear her grandson (34) of a DWI. Her grandson lives 2 hours away & she immediately went to go get the cash. The "lawyer" told her to get the money and go to either a CVS or Walgreens and purchase a Green Dot card so it wouldn't be traced because they were trying to do her grandson a "favor" by not leaving a paper trail so that the DWI wouldn't go on his record. Thankfully she called my husband and I before hand and we did our own detective work on the situation to find that it was a total scam. We live in Texas and this number is out if Canada. Scary these people had family members names and when they called it actually came up as private caller and we were given this number as the number to call once we had purchased the green dot cards.
Thank you for the info...we were also scammed from the same phone number in Canada and we full on believed these actors and sent the money as they demanded to help our stranded relative in Chicago but we got it stopped from delivery when we starting doubting the situation.
