got a call from a faux  grandson in Canada looking for money

Ya these bastards took advantage of my 83 year old grandma and got her to send 1800 saying they were me, her grandson, and I got arrested in Canada. Then I came home for spring break 2 days later and my grandma realized I wasn't in jail in Canada.  Then a couple days later they called again and my grandma gave me the phone and I got to talk this scum a bit. They are scam artists and basically some of the lowest forms of pieces of s**t taking advantage of old people who have trouble knowing the difference.

This person just called my home number tonight. The nerve to imposter my oldest grandchild. Please be aware and send this alert out to as many people as you know. I hope everyone knows the voice of your grandchild to not get scammed again. This is a Quebec, Canada phone number. Bunch of crooks trying to get our hard earned dollars.

This guy called saying he was  my granson, that gone to Quebec with friends and they were in a fender bender, with a rental car,and needed money to be bailed out!!!When I told him he didn't sound like my grandson,he told me he had a cold due to the place they were in is very cold....He wanted me to send him $900., thru Western Union.He wanted it to be made payable to,Kevin Casse.He said he didn't want any of the family to know what happened,as he had 2 beers and had a breathalizer test and didn't pass it!!When I told him why did the check had to be made out to  Kevin Casse,he told me that was his friend that was going to bail him out!!He told me he was calling from a phone booth because the authorites took his cellphone and whatever money he had!!!!!He was to call me back  in 3 hrs.to get the tracking confirmation number,which it gave us time to go on the computer to check out this is a scam!!!!!!!    What a sick jerk to do stuff like this to innocent, retired persons!!!!I see from other replies that his story was similiar to mine.
