My grandma almost fell for this. Asked my mom what to do. Mom almost fell for it. After an hour of freaking out and preparing to go buy itunes gift cards or whatever it was, my mom thought to call me. "Oh my god are you ok what happened where are you etc"
Uhh I'm at my apartment, getting ready for work.
Everyone should talk to their parents and grandparents about this scam.
