Scam Description
Received text message informing me this person won the multi state lottery in Portland, OR. He says he is the father of two he is 46 yrs old and has randomly chosen 50 people to give 1,000,000 each to because he won 1.3 Billion on 4/30/24. There is a YouTube video referenced of the person who won. Probably the real winner. The text gives a code(wn050) a phone number 936-648-5395 and says this is the number to Larry Scott a multi state lottery agent from the multi state lottery association. This text was sent to myself and 4 others from other states. Very similar to another person’s complaint. Hopefully something can be done about this before someone falls victim to this scam.
