Pay wall, but sometimes it is readable.
I am a Journalism graduate from RIT who was able to read this article in full. Here are my findings:
- The scammer had access to author Charlotte Cowles’ home address, Social Security Number and the names of her family members.
- Initially, the scammer posed as Amazon to send a cold call from a likely-spoofed number, claiming Charlotte spent $8,000 on Apple Products when she only ordered groceries and diapers for her two-year-old kid.
- The scammer then claimed she was the victim of identity theft, transferring her call to a fellow employee who posed as “Calvin Mitchell with the Federal Trade Commission.”
- “Calvin” then claimed that 22 bank accounts, 9 vehicles and four properties were registered under Charlotte’s name, with $3 million wired to overseas locations such as Jamaica
and Iraq 
- The scammer then “found” a photo of her ID in a rental car that was abandoned at the US-Mexico border with blood and drugs stuffed in the trunk, claiming a home in New Mexico was subsequently raided and that warrants were out for Charlotte’s arrest in Texas and Maryland for cybercrimes, money laundering and drug trafficking.
- “Calvin” then asked how much Charlotte has saved in her bank account before transferring her to a fellow employee claiming to be “Michael Sarano with the CIA.” “Michael” subsequently called her by spoofing the number used by the FTC and claimed that Charlotte was being investigated for “major federal crimes” and that she would be arrested while her home was raided and her assets were seized if she called an attorney.
- “Michael” then asked for Charlotte to withdraw $50,000 from her bank account and deliver the money to a designated mule. The two never spoke since.
I believe these were the same scammers that @OhItsLaz reported this past Friday, as they pulled the same crop on me while I baited them with my Virtual Machine. Luckily, Bandwidth.com cancelled their account after I sent them a detailed report of my findings.
