Scammer's arrest caught on video (video screenshot)
(CBN) – A New York grandmother is being recognized for outsmarting a suspected scammer – and it was all captured on video.
Jean Ebbert, a retired 911 dispatcher, received an odd phone call Thursday from a man claiming to be her grandson, explaining that he had been arrested and needed $8,000 to make bail. There was just one problem. She doesn't have any grown male grandchildren.
Ebbert received two more telephone calls, one from a man pretending to be a court officer and the other from someone posing as an attorney.
