Twice I got a phone call from a relative that was in trouble. the first was at my house. the second, I was just lucky to answer my 94 yr old father's phone.
The first one was my nephew got arrested after flying to New York for a good friends wedding.
I live in calif. It was pretty good but knew it was a scam.

The second one was real good. At my aging Father's and picked up the phone.
Told him I was my Dad and that before I sent the money, I needed to talk to my wife. Oh boy... don't let her know. it got right up to the point where we would transfer bank account numbers and then (on speaker phone) with his care giiver listening, I told him to "F" Off and hung up.
