XYL and I just returned from local store where the salesperson asked if we
had seen last Saturday's excitement.  It seems they have answering machine
that will take extended message.  Phone had rung while attending to
customers.  Answering machine picked up with inquiry about keyboards (the
musical instrument type) and left phone number.  Caller forgot to turn off
cell phone and began discussion with accomplice about credit card scam they
intended to pull  in purchase of 2 expensive keyboards.  All captured on the
answering machine.  Salesperson called back, saying yes the items were in
stock.  Sheriff and deputies waited for them to consummate fraudulent
purchase before arresting them.
