Iowa Grocery Clerk Credited With Foiling Scam, Saving Elderly Woman $1,100
An elderly Iowa woman was apparently saved from losing $1,100 after an observant grocery store clerk thought the senior citizen might be the victim of a scam.
The clerk, Paul Johnson, was working the customer service counter at a Hy-Vee supermarket in Davenport, Iowa, on Wednesday when the 87-year-old customer approached and said that she needed to wire some money, the Quad-City Times reports.
