The newly widowed sexagenarian from Birmingham, Ala., had just given her credit card number to Transcontinental Warranty, a company that said it sold extended warranties for vehicles through robocalls that were handed off to high-pressure salesmen.
'They are incredibly good at what they do,' Ames said. 'It never occurred to me during that call that it was a scam.'"
