6:34 pm
of time they're looking at various parts of the face. it's not something that as a parent you're going to be ashl to see. your child's doctor is going to be screening all along the way for the real signs. >> do not make any assumptions about what you are seeing. >> don't do that. >> thank you richard besser, weighing in again tonight. one note from overseas next tonight, china, a string of powerful blasts targeting headquarters for that country's communist party. 7 explosions struck the building located in the northern part of the country today. one person was killed, the bombings follow last week's attack in beijing. back here at home tonight an investigation into a new kind of scam, one that preys on the kindness of strangers, not just any strangers but good hearted celebrities. abc news tracked down a woman behind an elaborate trick. here's abc's david wright.
