You know if everyone that received this scam from 403 616 5668 could get together and share how much they lost and to who and where, maybe we could get the feds interested. But they will not do anything if they only get complaints from one person at a time. Respond to geobrtiggs@yahoo.com.

I'm a caregiver and my client just received a phone call which had her in a panic... That her grandson hit a car and was under the influence in jail! She had me write down a pd name (Stanley Crawford) and a name of the guy he hit lastnight. The person instructed us to go to Walmart a d pay 1800 to some guy Jairo... In DR! I instantly googled both names and was led to this post! Do not do it! Her grandson is home asleep.

Call from STanley Crawford for alcohol related accident with my minor son. Was EXTREMELY suspicious and tried to verify info and could not. Please report to FCC and Attorney General per FBI request.

He tried to hit my grama with the same damn thing today. I live in cali, as do seemingly all of the targeted folks. I believe after some research that they are getting the names off a list, probably from some kind of cruise ship or something. I will have my revenge, and anyone who can contribute more info has my thanks.

Similar story. Dominican Republic this time.    Richard Carmichael.  4036165668.     Force callers to provide a call back to a goverment agency that certifies ligitamacy.

Listen these guys are not in Canada. Call forwarding. Hopefully they will be caught.

Same thing happen to my mother and told my son hit someone with slight alcohol on breath. How do we get back at these scammers

If you want a copy of your money gram, do not report it as a scam, you will not get it. Just request a copy from money gram and pay them fifteen dollars and wait 30 to 60 days for them to do it.

No need to report the Bolivia  scam to the local police,They refuse to do anything about it for Jurisdictional reasons. Report it to the FTC and Hope.

The other day my Dad got a call that my Son had rear-ended someone and barely failed the alcohol test.

As with all the others, had to send $3400 by moneygram immediately blah-blah-blah.

Report these a-holes to the FBI.

Same deal.......a few minutes ago.  Identical to all of the above (Stanley Crawford).
Somehow they know how to target grandparents.

Eventually they'll get shutdown, but not before victimizing so many loving parents and grandparents who didn't get to their computers fast enough to find the scam.

My dad received a call from these disgusting low life human beings.  Almost fell for it.  Same story: oldest grandson, in jail, dui, blah blah blah.  Send money to Ecuador.  Thank the lord my stepmother googled the number.  Playing on peoples emotions is so wrong.  Not only did this upset him, but caused anxiety that he doesn't need at this point in life.  Special place in hell for you deadbeats.  I am a very angry daughter. Karma is a bi***.

Received a call on 6/26/13 from someone posing as my grandson,with a cold.  Said he had gotten in trouble last night and was locked up and need help to pay his public defender.  I told him to call his mom and let her know about this and he said he didn't want her to know yet and please don't tell anybody yet and to just call Stanley Crawford his public defender.  After check with his mom immediately I found out about the scam.

Got call today from "oldest grandson".  Said he was in jail for auto accident and DUI and wanted $7600.00 to get him out.  Said he was in Charlotte, NC.  Said he rear-ended someone after 2 beers and was driving drunk buddy home.  Did not want me to tell anyone about this.  Gave the name Richard Carmichael with phone # of 403 616 5668.  When it was apparent I would not give him any money, he hung up.  Will report this to police today.

Who did they send the money to?

Did you know why they ask for money less than $3000?  It is because at $3000 they have to supply a bunch of Identification. Where less than that, all they have to do is sign for the money. Except in OK, it is $1000 and in Az they have to supply the ident for any money, so they don't scam in AZ.

I figure these crooks took about $320,000.00 just this last month, from older folks that fell for the scam. Don't you think" Money Gram" would get concerned about this money going to Santa Cruz, Bollivia

I figure these crooks made about $320,000.00 this last month, taking money from older people that fell for the scam.

I figure these guys took in $31,200.00 from March 19 through April 17, just the ones that are on this page. How many people were too embarrassed to report?

I live on the West Coast, what area of the country do any of you who made a post live in? maybe we can get some idea where these scammers are working from. Please respond.

what was the person's name you sent the money to?

What good does it do to post these messages if no one answers them???

report it to the FTC.gov. recomended by local police

What was the person's name in Bolivia you sent the money to???
I sent mine to Gilmar Lino Alverado Santa Cruz, Bolivia. Please respond. I am for real not a Scammer, need to catch these people and have them punished.

what was the person's in Bolivia you sent the money to?

Folks ask the people who you deposited the money with for a copy of the receipt. It may take legal action, but the local police can do that. That way we can see if the same person is picking up the money. Also the written signature is just as good as a finger print. And  the receipt will have the location of the person who picked it up. If we pool all of the information, we might be able to catch these people who prey on the elderly.

If you have any ideas on how to catch this person, please advise.

My grandparents were 805

My grandparents got taken for $6k yesterday.  said I was in jail (DUI) in Oklahoma.  don't tell anyone, etc, etc.

My area is in California, Where is your?

Could all of you tell me your area code, mine is (510) in California. The reason I ask is, I would like to narrow down this scammer's operation calling area. Maybe we can get an Idea where he is operating from.
