Male subj called on 11/27, claiming to be our relative who was visiting from Mexico. Male stated he would be leaving San Diego on 11/28 and would be enroute to our residence. Appoximately, 2 hrs after, male subj called again stating he had been involved in an accident and the other involved party was a female and her elderly 85 yr old father, who suffered from parkinsons and was having convulsions. Due to our supposed relative traveling from Mexico to our residence, we believed him. We personally did not have the funds they were asking for ($2,200 us dollars). To make things worse, the female involved stated she was on her way to Mexico already and needed the money to be sent to her husband. Once again we were concerned for our relative, so we agreed to the supposed exchange of information for the accident and agreed to send the money. We then contacted my aunt in another city who did have the funds and she sent the money to the address the female requested in Mexico. ADDR: Omar Alejandro Diaz Campos Lazaro Cardenas #1420 Zapopan Mexico, female involved was an Ana Karen Orozco unknown addr or phone. The money was sent thru Western Union. Couple hours later, the male called back then stating the elderly male involved had passed due to an aneurysm. He then stated he needed another $2,500 to be able to assist this female in sending her father's body to Mexico. At that point I advised the male (supposed relative) to call his father in Mexico and notify him of the situation. Male was hesitant and said he didn not want to worry his father, and that he had alread talked to our relative who assisted the first time and she was going to send the other $2500. When the male hesitated that we notify his father of situation, we called his father then confirming that his son was in Mexico and it was not the male who claimed to be our relative. Male subject has called my other relative twice and one other time here to our residence.incident reported to local law enforecement to prevent any other victims. Number on screen was a non existing number, 333-749-7806.
