HTN: New Scam Targets Elderly

A recent phone scam targeting the elderly that's popped up elsewhere in the country has finally made its way to the Buffalo area. Two men call the victim, one of whom pretends to be the person's "grandson." He says he's stuck in Toronto because of an accident and needs 36-hundred dollars for repairs. He then puts his "lawyer" on the phone to give the victim instructions on how to send them money and where.
