Anyone who would know you are older and do this on purpose is one awful loser.
Sounds like a scam, I got the same kind of a call 3 or 4 yrs. ago & I did what you did, hung up. I called my daughter & told her about it & she just said, you did hang up on them didn’t you. She said there on vacation & both grandkids have been with her & our son in law for a week. So to anyone that gets this kind of call like this hang up, then call them yourself & see if it was them. Good for you, you did the right thing graciegirl & didn’t get scammed!
