My mom & I keep getting calls from this place saying we we won a million dollars but they need us to send them a green dot card with $399.99. Yeah so a little fishy lol definitely a scam call Beware
This guy is calling me now saying I won 2.5 million and a car. They want me to get a green dot card with $258 before they will deliver. I asked him to send me verification information via email. After several attempts I never received any information. I asked him for his email and he gave me dturner487@yahoo, but it wouldn't even get through. Total scam.

• The tooth fairy really does not exist
• Everything you read on the internet is not necessarily true.
• It is illegal to ask for money for a loan or prize, before awarding the loan or prize!

Got a call from a private number today
He said his name is Jeff Douglas w PCH. He said I won 2.5 million and a new car. He said I had to buy a green dot card and put $298.00 on it. He gave me this number when I got the card. I called the number right back and got a home machine voicemail. So I looked up this number and found this site. I will be reporting this . SCAM
