A person identified themselves as Chris Dave and said they were from Precinct 12 in LA and that my granddaughter was arrested. They wanted $10k to release her and wanted me to go to The Walmart to send them money. Found out granddaughter wasn't arrested and hung up on them. This is a common scam focusing on elderly people.

Yes! Why haven't these people been arrested yet?
They called my Mother this past Monday! They researched! Grandsons name, personal info. Called my Mother and stated his name, Chris Davis with the San Jose Police Department! Stated grandson in jail...with a friend who first got a speeding ticket and then found an illegal gun affiliated with a murder in LA last year and then marijuana in the car, as well! Requested 20,000 for bailout! Told her immediately, you need to go to Walmart and buy Gift Cards......call back in an hour and call us bCk and give us the cards numbers! This is a SCAM affecting elderly people! Call your local Police Department and report these people! They need to be jailed! They still answer their phone Police Department and are still scamming the elderly! Saddening! Walmart Corporate Headquarters needs to put a stop to this as well! They are to blame too for allowing this to happen!
