We recently received a phone call from 'our son' in Toronto saying that he had been involved in a car accident and needed $3,000 bail money. Luckily, we eventually didn’t fall for it but at first it seemed convincing enough for us to get the money - enough to pay a Toronto lawyer and - almost - deposit the money in a local bank. We didn’t recognize our son’s voice, but he said that he broke his nose in the accident so that alerted us.
