In memory of Lois Van Dahm, who passed away earlier this month, we are replaying a conversation from some years ago with Lois and her husband Tom (a longtime faculty member at Carthage.) They came on the program to talk about a regrettable situation in which they were duped by someone who telephoned them pretending to be their beloved grandson in urgent need of financial assistance. They wanted to share their story in the hopes that it would serve as a cautionary tale and perhaps help someone else from otherwise falling for the same sort of scheme.
