The only comment I can make is that my grandparents would have either laughed their asses off or blown one helluva gasket if I had asked them not to tell my parents that I was in trouble with the law. I’m sure this old couple are very nice people, but to give in to some kid’s request that they send him thousands of dollars and not tell his parents was the first door that opened them up to this scam. That’s taking GP love way too far. I almost...I said ALMOST...don’t feel sorry for them.
You have good family.
