Just found out my sister (45) met a man on words with friends (Scrabble with strangers). He claimed he lives in Dubai and has a 13 yo son. So this man allegedly works in the oil business and had to travel to the UK for work, in the UK he falls ill and is hospitalized. now the son is asking for $500(USD) to transport the sick man to a better hospital. Now my sister said she's not sending but she's not walking away either so im concerned that they will push for money again and she will fold. This whole situation threw up so many red flags for me right away. Has anyone seen this scam before? Any input on hiw I go about talking to her, my concern is that she is emotionally invested and I want to help her without her feeling like a fool or broken hearted if that's even possible.
