Just received a phone call from 312-546-4527 (Illinois call), and the woman on the other end stated that she had called to inform me that my name had been drawn to win a Jeep Cherokee at a local mall (which I didn't enter), and that I was now a guaranteed top 4 winner. She stated that her name was Christine Lee, and that she was not trying to sell anything, and that all I had to do to claim my prize was call the number 877-394-5574 and speak to Mr. Russell to arrange a pick up day and time. Sounds fishy to me.
Got a call from Marshall T 312-546-5427 telling me how I won some drawing for a Ford Escape which I never entered! She said to call Mr Russell at 1-866-659-0483 to claim 1 of 4 prizes. Yeah, whatever. Stupid scam.
Got a call from Mr. Russell at 866-659-0483 from a prize claim center. Said my husband completed form online for a sweepstakes and he has won. He gave me this number and asked my husband to call him back. When I repeatedly asked what company he represented all he could say is Travel Agency but he could not give me a name. I then asked that our number be removed from the list and moved on......I hope others don't fall for this....09/28/11 5:00 p.m.
Yep, got the call from Chicago also. I *67 on my phone and then called 'Mr. Russell'. A recording of a young girl said that 'We have to leave your name and number and Mr Russell will call you back within 15 minutes". So I made a broken voice recording....bunch of gibberish with an occasional 'seven' 'two' thrown in there. *67 blocks your phone number from the receiving ends caller ID.
Ditto!
Received a voice mail said my husband completed form online for a sweepstakes and a Ford Escape.
The message said to call our Prize Director at 1-866-659-0483
