Caller first said he was paramedic at the scene of a bad accident and that a "brown haired female" had a broken jaw and was badly injured and had dialed my number on his phone. He asked me if that description fit a family member of mine. After I had told him that it could be my mom, he quickly changed his story to say that his brother had been the one that caused the accident, and that they now had my mom in their basement with a gun to her head. He told me if I didn't pay for the damages to his brother's car immediately, or if I hung up the phone, they were going to shoot my mom.
I quickly grabbed my girlfriend's phone and called my dad, who said he was sitting next to my mom and that they were safe and sound. After I hung up on the "paramedic", he continued to call me 6 more times before giving up.
