got a call from some guy who said I won a survey contest. Didn't know who I was or where I lived or anything like that. I didn't go any further until I reverse looked up the phone number and then googled the number to find that it was a scam.
Got a call from this guy stated I registered for a Sony contest over the last year by giving my phone number. They never stated my name, But first said has anyone from Sony contacted you already. They told be I won and can pick from 4 prizes. 32" Sony TV, $2500 cash, a Vacation, or a new truck. They assured me it would cost nothing, but stated they needed to verify if I was able to claim the prizes. for the Vacation they wanted to know if I was married, for the truck if I made over $50K. They then transfered the call to a "manager," who would give me a code to verify my prize. The Manager told me I needed to go to either one of two places that day to claim the prize at 530 or 730PM. (Address: 564 Warrenton Rd, Fredricksburg, VA 22405 or 901 31st NW st. Washington DC 20007).
I told them I would call them back, they then called me 5 times yesterday and twice today.
I called Sony and they did not know of this contest!!!
These guys are fishing for info, don't given them any info.

Caller claimed to be calling from Sony to advise me that I had won a prize and must attend a prize drawing session at 5:45 or 7:45 tonight (or tomorrow night, or Saturday night, or whenever I am available) to claim my prize. Claimed that I had entered a contest around "Eastertime" by entering my phone number on a red and white form in a shopping mall like "Walmart, Kmart, or many other shopping malls." When I said I was not available to attend a prize drawing at any of those times, he thanked me for my time and hung up.
He too called me also said I had won 4 prizes I could not understand him. I asked what store gave him this info he gave me a list of stores. The address he gave me to pick up my prizes was ab-promotions 1425 Tri-State Parkway 130 Gurnee,IL 60031. He asked me how old I was I lied. He asked me if I was married I told him I was single then he said not even a girlfriend. That's when I hang up.
