I just received a call from this company. The message they left was that I had won $2.5 million in the Lottery and a Mercedes. All I had to do was call them back and give them some information. Aren't I the lucky one??? I guess if they find one stupid person out of the thousands they call they consider themselves lucky. I wish we could do something about these people who waste our time and money.
I received the same call about 6 weeks ago. They called again and knew I had had foot surgery. Wanted more money. Called later and knew I had talked with tax office. They call late at night and know I have been out . Now they have threatened to ruin my credit if I don' send money. They have all my personal information. This has gotten so scary. I don't talk with them they leave a message. One is elderly sounding middle eastern .
