Llamada de un paramédicos Joseph de hospital Florida, ingresa un muchacho ,da características en muy mal estado por un accidente y tiene mi número para que lo ayude. Informa modelo de carro. O sea datos que te  me da el nombre ,para que no haya dudas que es un caso cierto. Al decirle a iba a rastrear la llamada, cuelga. Llaman a otra conocida con la misma información.para q avise a la familia.

Just got a call from this number saying he was paramedic with FL Hospital and man was in an accident and they found my cell number as emergency contact .  I told him I heard about this scam and hung up.  I don't have any male relative here; also, doesn't everyone's phone have the name associated with the phone number?  He is asking me who I am .........

407  257 5574     Same thing,  I also was able to engage in a text exchange, they speak spanish,  I suspect he is Puerto Rican based on the accent and back ground noise.   This is a scam

The person said he was an EMT and there had been an accident.  They couldn't find the ladies identification but said her phone had me as the emergency contact.  They said she was unconscious and in critical condition bleeding profusely. They asked if I had any females in the family.  I gave them my wife and daughters name and described them.  They asked what type of car she would be driving and told them.  They then said it was my wife.  Then another man got on the phone and said my wife and hit a 16 yr. old on a motorcycle and he was his father.  He said he had pistol whipped her in the head and they had her at an apartment.  At this point I realized it was a scam and hung up.
