A Toronto senior who lost $25,000 to a popular phone scam is speaking out in hopes of warning others.

Known as the "grandparent scam," fraudsters target older people, who are duped into thinking either a grandchild or another loved one is in desperate need of emergency cash.

As Caryn Lieberman reports, there have been over 100 victims of the scam since March 2021.
