800-888-7654

When I answered a call from this number to my cell phone--which is on the do not call list--a man said something like, "Grandma, is that you?"  When I did not say anything, he said, "Grandma?"  I knew from the outset that this had to be a scam and just hung up.  When I Iooked up the number, it was for a tire store in California and I live on the East Coast. This was probably someone just fishing to see if they could get a gullible senior to send money to a "grandson" having car trouble out of state. I don't think the tire store had anything to do with the call, except that someone made the call from there or patched through their number to make the call.

I answered the phone as I was in a room that did not have a phone that I could not check the number and I was expecting a call from the Doctor.. When I answered the person said Hello Grandma and I stated I'm not your grandmother and he hung up

One of those so called went to jail scams.  They called my phone saying this is your grandson which I don't have one.  I knew it was fake, so I tried milking this idiot for more information.

Called 11/30/2016 at about 7:55 Am PST. Said he was my grandson and wanted me to "Grab a pencil and paper" to write down his lawyers contact number. I tried to keep him on the phone so he would have less time to call other people. He hung up.

Received a phone call from a "grandson" asking for help just like all the replies above. Funny thing though, he knew my husbands name. Makes you think that someone may be listening in to your phone calls.

8008887654 when I answered the phone a male said, Hi Grandma! I told him he had the wrong number and he hung up. I really hope no one falls for this :(

It appears I got the same phone call and the man on the other end said "grandma"..
Probably some shyster trying to get money from people who will fall for this. I have heard of this happening. Since I don't have grandchildren it is getting pretty old. I have had more than one call from this number.

I had the very same phone call and this is not the first time

Your husband's first name is probably listed in the directory

Call from this number this morning. Answered  phone, said hello, no reply so hung up.

800-888-7654 - got the grandma call...  told me he had a car accident, broke his nose, totaled his car and had no money.  Told him "well, that sucks."  He was like what?  "That sucks."  Said he needed help... "that sucks - fix your own damn problems."  If I had more time, I'd have screwed with him longer....

Answered phone and a young male voice said "Grandma"?
I said I'm no ones grandma and hung up !!
Number is a tire store in CA

I'm a caregiver & this number called my client's house & the 92 yr old husband (hard of hearing) answered. I got on another phone & listened in. It was a girl doing the whole ' 'grandpa?, do you not recognize me?' thing & not saying who she was. He kept saying 'huh'. She said 'Did you hear about by trip?'Said she came in because her friend had cancer (& died), then she got in a car accident. She started to pretend to cry & say she broke her nose & failed the breathalyzer (later said she failed it by 1 pt), so she was in jail. Needed to write down case# R031, because her lawyer would be calling & needing it. I finally told her she had the wrong number & she said 'really?' & I told her again & she hung up...Old man thought it was funny some little girl was calling him grandpa & looking for her grandpa. He said then her momma got on & said she had the wrong number. Ha

I normally do not answer these calls  8008887654 but i was on way for eye surgery, guy said, hello grammaw, he had a rather slumlike accent,  i said what?  He said some word resembling grandma though he did not have a foreign accent meaning from a other outside the us.  I hung up and tried calling the scam no. It rang and they put it on busy,  we must get the word out to seniors,  do not answer unidentified calls

Someone called my parents a few days ago with the exact same story.  Said he was my son and he had traveled to Pennsylvania for a funeral, and got into an accident and failed a breathalyzer.  Luckily my dad asked the right questions (like "What is your last name?"), which the caller got wrong and told him it was a scam and he wasn't falling for it.  The caller then started cussing out my 74-year-old father and then hung up, but not before asking for my mother by her first name.  Creepy...
