A friend's elderly grandparents have recently been scammed out of £980 in the run up to Christmas. The couple were harassed over the phone for several weeks by the "Tax office" who threatened to repossess their home. The elderly lady was ultimately intimidated into driving to the local shop (with the scammer still on the line) and buying £980 in Apple vouchers on her credit card, before sending the voucher codes on to the scammers. The family is now in £980 debt over the Christmas period, and it's unlikely any of the money will be recovered. Anything we can return to the couple would be greatly appreciated by their entire family. Thank you.
