- Third Update on Relative being Scammed
An elderly relative is being scammed by someone pretending to be a woman in her twenties deployed in Iraq. The scammer has convinced the relative to send gift cards and open bank accounts, while claiming she is quitting the army to join him commercially. The relative, who has contributed nothing during a 9-month stay with family, refuses to acknowledge the deception despite a heated argument with her husband.
