We received a called on 12/10/10. This person was pretending to be a cousin from Mexico. He said he was on his way over visit and on his way he had an accident. He said that he was held by the Mexican police and they were not going to release him until we send them 1,500 dollar electronically. Lots of thing did not made sense. He would avoid personal question that we would asked him. They were very persistant on us sending him the money. Later, we came to a conclution that it was all a scam. We called our cousin in Mexico and they had never been in an accident and that they had no plans on traveling this year. Please, beaware of this scam. My suggestion to you is ask alot of personal questions. Questions that only the person that they are "pretending" to know will know.
