Scam Alert! The Phone Sting

THE PHONE AND TEXT STING:

Here’s a phone scam someone tried to pull on me last Sunday, on Mother’s Day. I’m sharing this here and now because readers out there could also be vulnerable and fall for it, and therefore should be warned. The scam came perilously close to success, which could have cost me thousands of dollars. Read carefully, and look, and listen, for red flags.
