This kind of thing happened during WW II; my mother received a "three-star" telegram (sent by German "Bund" sympathizers) claiming that my father was "missing in action"....fortunately, my grandfather had a LOT of "pull" as Chief of Air Fuel and Lubricants for the USAAF, got on the "horn", and within less than a day, she received another telegram, this one from the International Red Cross, informing her that they had spoken to him 12 hours ago, and he was fine.
There is nothing new under the sun...but it is enough to &%$# me off royally, anyway.
