This is an old scam that must be surfacing. My 90 year old mother fell for it. Went to the neighborhood bank to get the money this "grandson" said he needed, but thankfully, the bank teller called me first. I told her that it was not legit and then told my mother that my son would never call her for money and if he was in some kind of serious trouble, he would call me or his father. Something to be said for a bank that actually knows their customers.
