The caller said I had entered a contest for a car and my husband and I were going to receive a prize. The contest was held either a couple months ago or possibly a year ago. She then went on to say a gentleman would be calling me back shortly and he did - twice. I didn't answer either call and no message was left on my phone.
That phone number was:
804-886-2763
I am employed and usually let unknown callers/numbers leave a message. With the recent hurricane, I thought it was an employee or possibly a relative or friend was calling.
This number will be reported to the proper authorities. PLEASE feel free to use the following information. It is "very" effective.
