Call came in on 2/25/16 and caller ID said "offender call" which I did not answer because I did not recognize area code or number. Message was left and woman came on line advising call came from a correctional facility which, of course, was garbled and then the alleged "offender" said his first name, also garbled. Caller requests if I want to accept the call and my METHOD OF PAYMENT! Naturally, I did nothing and call was terminated. One of the newer scams where you're advised someone you know has been arrested and they need money! DO NOT ANSWER! Warnings about this type of scam have been in newspapers and on t.v.
