The caller claimed to be from "Publisher's Clearing House". They told me I had won thousands of dollars. I said, "great, you have my address. Send me my check". They said I needed a confirmation number. I had already checked the PCH web site and learned that is not how they do those sort of things. This took a while, because the caller could barely speak english. I told him I was recording the call and then forwarding it and other information to the FBI and Nassau Co. Sheriff. That is when they hung up.
