Scam Description
This man with a Southern accent called me and told me that I had won the big prize
from Publishers Clearing House. I was supposed to take a blank piece of paper to Dollar General store in my hometown and call him back for further instructions. Since I had received a similar scam a couple of months ago, I immediately knew that this was just another scam.
