Have you heard of the latest vaccine scam [details inside] ?

Asked by LadyMarissa (16099points) December 17th, 2020

According to the news scammers are calling telling people that they can be bumped to the front of the line for their covid vaccine IF they give them them their SSN & checking account info. I know most jellies are way too smart to fall for this scam; however, I feel that it is important to warn elderly family & friends so they are at least aware of the scam. Before both my parents passed, I drilled into their brain “IF anyone calls telling you ‘this’ DON’T listen to them, just hang up.” My Mom was the perfect sucker for these type of calls because she believed that everybody was honest!!! After Mom died, dad was so lonely that he’d keep these types on the phone for hours asking them questions & IF they tried to hang up, he’d say“You mean that if I… that you will…” That always seemed to sucker them back in!!!

Have you heard of this scam & do you know anyone who you might need to enlighten???
