I received a call on my landline today. My caller ID showed 215-550-9524. It appears on my TV as Newtown Pa. I questioned the caller on the company name. They kept saying Legal Aid. Caller stated they could help with my finances and credit cards. They asked how many credit cards I had and how much I owed. They asked for the name on credit card and the numbers. I did not give out any personal information. The callers name was Maryann. Her direct line 844-895-6706. I called the phone number back and asked for Maryann. Another woman answered. She asked who I was. I gave my name and hung up.

Type of a scam Family/Friend Emergency
I recd a call this morning at 8:00 AM supposedly from my 20 yr old grandson (he sounded like my grandson). The person stated he was in an accident & was in jail. He was in jail because he had been drinking. Jimmy Smith
(330-736-1673) from Legal Aid called me and told me that they needed $1150 to bail my grandson from jail. An hour later I called Jimmy Smith and told him I was only able to get $500 & he told me he would speak w/the judge.
I did not send the money. I also called my grandson’s father who stated his son was upstairs asleep.
