One time a phone demon called my mom and tried to convince her that her grandson was in jail and she needed to send the police dozens of phone cards right away or he was in big trouble. And that's not even the worst one. I wish she just got calls trying to get her to buy bug spray.

My aunt got one of those calls too asking for bail money, and so did her cousin who almost fell for it.
