i don't understand people who are dumb enough to fall for this stuff...

My wife's (former) coworker came into work crying one day because her mother that lost like $6k to some scammer.

I don't remember exactly how, but it was painfully stupid.

Then again, her coworker is at least 36 and still has $60k in student loans from getting her bachelor's degree... The family doesn't appear to be great with money.
