A 73-year-old knew she was being scammed. So she lured the scammer to her home and had him…
Jean, a 73-year-old grandmother, was at her Long Island home Thursday morning when she received a phone call from a man claiming to be her grandson. He was in jail for drunken driving, he said. He needed her help posting an $8,000 bail.

A man with a strong Indian accent claiming to be from accident investigation team, asking about an accident in the last 3 years. I asked him what accident but he said he wasn't allowed to give any info other than that it was an accident of some kind involving someone at my number. Eventually told me he'd record it that I said I've had no accidents and am entitled to no compensation. Joker

This number has called me about PPI refunds and as Microsoft, Clearly an Indian call centre running a variety of scams. PPI, to get your bank and credit card details. Microsoft, to access your computer, or charge your credit card for emptying the error file on your computer, which you can do yourself for free and doesn't represent any problem.

caller with very thick Indian accident asked about someone at this address having a car accident... Sounded suspicious so I asked who, who he was, after some mumbled replies, the line went quiet then dead....

I am experiencing at least 3 calls a day from this number, on answering there is silence for about 30 seconds and then it disconnects. Definitely a nuisance!!!
