138: The Mimics of Punjab

815.151 - 837.339 Jack Recider

I find this call interesting. The victim recognized that this was an attempted scam right away and recorded the whole phone conversation. And it's very good for him to notice it that soon and hit record for the whole call. But would you have noticed this was a scam so early on if your cousin called you out of the blue and was in trouble? Would you have been tempted to send him $2,000 to free him?
