Called my cell phone and said his name was Anthony Reyes and says he was given this number, there was an accident in my family. I hung up and didn't let him finish. Next a few minutes later he called my husband's cell. He didn't answer. In both calls said number unavailable. Fishy! Our #'s are only one digit apart.
I just got a call from these a$$holes today, they said they had my brother hostage and they were going to kill him unless I wired them $2,000. Lowlife scum.

I got a call from (716) 598-2872 a hispanic man stating that they had kidnapped my brother and pistol whipped him because he wrecked some guys BMW. I would have to wire him money for the repairs and If I didn't they would kill him. I immediately called my brother who was home and safe. Im a retired NYPD Detective and I will try and track down these dirtbags and get them prosecuted.
