Rihanna Spotted Heading to César Restaurant in Paris After Céline Dion Concert

Valley families desperate to free loved ones from jail are being targeted by scammers posing as law enforcement officials, court administrators warned Tuesday.
According to officials, at least three documented victims losing between $300 and $1,750 in what officials describe as an unprecedented scheme.
The scam works with alarming precision: Fraudsters send text messages and make phone calls to family members of arrested individuals, complete with the detainee’s name, arrest information and date of birth — details that lend the communications an air of legitimacy.
“It had their name, their arrest information, and also their date of birth,” one victim told investigators, describing the deceptive message.
