The scam is still alive, just from a different phone # and a guy with a different name. I rec'd a call from Frank Montague at the Golden Nugget Casino and Lottery. Says I won $750k and all I need to do is go to Walmart or Walgreens and get a "green dot card" valued at $1000. After I get the card, the "package" would be delivered to my home. All I have to do is give the delivery person the $1000 and I get a check for $750K....RIGHT!
I called the State of ILL lottery commission...they have never heard of this promotion and said it's probably a scam.
I called the Bank of America number they provided...not sure it's really even BofA. Some guy answered and told me over the phone how much $ was in the account Golden Nugget referenced. Who does this? No real bank would give out account info over the phone!
After I told Frank no thanks, he called again....5 times in 20 minutes.
