    Cell vm:

    Did you also post this to the number shown on your caller ID?   This website was designed to function based on phone numbers.

    225-524-8570 is the number used to contact the OP. Might be spoofed IMHO.

    Mainah already placed a warning post in the appropriate thread in WCM.

    Might be worth posting in 800notes as well, but anyone doing a web search should find the warning.

    If they're asking the victim to call back the number shown on their caller ID, I doubt it's spoofed, or it wouldn't connect them with the criminals.
