Scam Description

Someone sent me a message that asked if i could do a favor for them. They knew my name and claimed to be my church pastor. When i asked what he needed, he said that he needed me to go get gift cards for a woman who was in the hospital and that he would pay me back. He said he couldnt, because he was in a meeting. At this point i realized it was a scam so i stopped texting.
