PRINCE FREDERICK, Md. – Calvert County State’s Attorney Robert Harvey reports that on August 18, 2022, a local resident was the victim of a terrible scam.
She received a phone call from two unknown males alleging to be her grandson and his attorney stating that they needed money to post bail.
She gathered-up $12,000 and gave it to a man who arrived at her house posing as the lawyer. He left with the money and has not been seen since. It was all a hoax.
Please do not be fooled by such scams. Attorneys are prohibited from posting bail for their clients.
If you have any information about this incident, please call the Maryland State Police at 410-535-1400.
Assistant State’s Attorney Benjamin G. Lerner has been assigned to assist in the investigation.
Was she elderly? Was she told not to tell? Is that why her family especially his parent didn’t know? Poor thing , I don’t like no one messing old people …
Another great reason to install and use home security cameras. That way we could at least been able to know what the pathetic loser looked like.
She definitely voted for Joe…
Grow up.
Speechless
