Money Needed for Medicine

A young woman approached an elderly gentleman in a parking lot. She claimed to have lost her purse and needed $10 for medicine. The man gave her the $10 and his phone number so she could pay him back. She continued to call the man and talk him into giving her close to $30,000.

Please be very careful of strangers approaching you in parking lots or stores. They have great stories of why they need your money, but many are nothing more than con artists.
