You would have not only been out the 250, but they would have tried to hit you up for more. Companies don't just chose random people to give money to, the government does not chose random people to give money to, you do not have to pay to get gifts, learn this and you will be much better off.
Lol just got off the phone with them.. I knew it was a bunch of Bs once he said the government randomly selected me to get 9000 for my own personal use.. they not that generous.. so as he was trying to give me this great spill i was already on google looking up the number dumb people.. plus the zip code they had for me wasn't even my current zip code. if you get a call from 1-800-518-4777 ignore them..
