This is a phone scammer using the GRANDMA SCAM. They called my mother saying they were my son who went to a friend's funeral in Peru and he had been arrested. The caller asked my mother not to tell me because he didn't want to ruin his reputation but he needed 2500 dollars by that evening to get out of jail. Then another person got on the phone and said they were a sergeant Miller from the US embassy to confirm the call was real.
DO NOT SEND ANYONE MONEY FOR ANYTHING LIKE THIS....IT IS A HUGE SCAM AND THEY PREY ON GRANDPARENTS FEARS!!!
