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.

Call +1 888-495-8501 it's the Candian royal polices anti fraud line or go to www.recol.ca to report these guys it seems like they have tried to scam quite a few people from the same number and I think if enough people report it to the Canadian authorities they might be able to do something about it.

This number called us claiming he was a grandson. Thanks for letting us know it was a scam.

Got the same message.

8/12/2011 Just get a call from this guy...............too bad he cannot fool me, my hapa-haole grandson don't sound like him

Got a call from from Quebec - said he was my oldest grandson - but my oldest grandson is a girl - said he'd been sick and he needed some money - I told him I didn't have any.  Said he'd call me back.  It's a scam clearly.
