Some law enforcement agencies use these types of "giveaways" to entice people who have outstanding arrest warrants to come in to their office to collect their "prize"
When the unsuspecting winner arrives they are placed under arrest pursuant to the warrant.
Debt collectors and process servers also use this ruse to locate and serve papers on people who would be otherwise hard to find.
Call came from 7085159244. Said that it was "imperative that I call back" about an entry form for a Ford Explorer, that I sent in. I have not filled out any entry forms. I don't know these people. They called last month from another number. Said for me to call Pat Lee at 888.304.4264 ext. 500...immediately. Prosecute these phishing/scammers.
call came from 708-515-9244 saying I had not won a car, but had won a tablet with android and wifi plus a $100 gift certificate, and that it was imperative that I call 888-304-4264 x456 to speak with Chris Kuhbah to find out where I could claim my prizes. I haven't entered any drawing to win prizes. Caller did not say what organization the drawing was for.

Caller said I didn't win the car but I won an Android tablet and $100 gift card. I called and they wanted to verify some things. They asked if I was still married. I said wife passed away. She said sorry this was for couples. New twist to scammers.
