Few days ago I was waiting in car at a traffic signal. A young woman came running to me and pledged for help. She said she needed a ride to nearest bank branch. It was very cold weather and she was shivering without wearing any winter jacket etc. Looking at her face I sensed something was wrong. I just asked and she told me in a low voice that she was going to pay someone $9000 to avoid a potential arrest. She was still on call with the scammer as he asked her to keep talking to him on way to bank. It took me lot of time to convince her to hang up the phone. After that I dropped her back at her home. I am still thinking how many like her are being scammed everyday and what can we do to help.
