my wife received a call this morning form a caller identifying himself as Frank Davis. Said a packet had been delivered to him from las Vegas and i need to call as he wouldnt tlak to my wife. he said the package was intended for me but I needed to call. Glad i checked this out.
Caller with thick accent identified herself as being from the "Federal Gaming Commission", notifying my elderly father that he had won a prize. Said the call-back number was a "toll free" number but was actually an L.A. non-toll-free #. Last I checked, gaming commissions are state agencies and they DON'T notify winners of prizes. More folks preying on the elderly........
got a call saying that I won a prize too. This was the office number he gave me for a Riverside California gaming commission. I suspected a hoax. The man gave me his name, many details including Lloyds of London, Brinks Internationl, etc. I didn't make any calls because I wanted to investigate first. Glad I did. Thanks for the post.
Got call @ 7:30am CST (LA was 5:30am) person identified himself as from Fedral Gaming Commission--asked if the Commission was for Hunting or Games for Sweepstakes and he stated was for both. Told me won 450,000.00 and would be @ the confort of my home from Lloyds of London. I asked how I did that as am not a Hunter and only join Sweepstakes that con be verified.....Of Course, lost the call..please be careful.....
