So this scam happened to a coworker of mine. On Facebook someone messaged his sister from what seemed like his account (The scammer basically took photos from his account to make it seem like him). The [fake] him then messaged, "Hey I'm in trouble. I got into an altercation and am being sent to jail. I need bail money to get out. Can you send $2,000 via Western Union to XYZ location. Please don't tell anyone else. I don't want to worry the rest of the family. I'll pay you back later."

But, his sister, being a little wiser, just called his cell phone. When he answered and said he was ok, they realized it was a scam. They reported to fake account to the police, but I don't know if anything came of it.

Yes-vocal demo from the past with all sorts of stuff laid on. Maybe even her new vocal laid over it also. He's done a few things like this where he reconstructs and recylces things. When I heard that drum roll, I knew it was him. He's used that little snippet quite a few times. So many Ian Levine projects are cheesy as hell but he gets it right every so often.
