A warning tonight for Seniors� Beware of who is on the other end of the telephone. Attorney General Pam Bondi says scam artists are targeting Florida seniors� using the names of their grandkids and asking for cash and bank account information.

�Here’s what they’re doing, they’re calling their homes saying I’m your grandson. They know the name, they have done extensive research, they know details about the family,” said Bondi.

The scammers are using technology that identifies them on caller ID as the family member they claim to be�. They�re reportedly getting information about the victim and the family members on social networking sights. There�s no word yet on the extensiveness of the scam, but Bondi is hoping to head off the problem before if too many seniors become victims.
