Sedona elder fraud stopped by Uber driver | FOX 10 Phoenix

An Uber driver who pulled into the wrong driveway by mistake thwarted a sophisticated financial scam targeting a Sedona woman in her 90s.

The victim was told by a caller claiming to be from Wells Fargo that her account was hacked and was instructed to hand over gift cards to a courier under strict confidentiality.

The driver, a retired police officer named Michael, recognized the warning signs of the scam, intervened before the handoff, and prompted Yavapai County officials to issue a public warning. FOX 10's Marc Martinez reports.
