Scam Description
The first phone called made was to my cell phone. I did not make it to it before they hung up. So I called 762-422-9597 and it stated that the text number couldn’t be reached. Then the same number called my landline number. He said his name was David Miller, Badge #408. I had won the $7500 a week for life. My confirmation number was #905416. He asked if I wanted the deliver to be public or private. I stated I wanted it to be private. He asked for me to spell my name and give him my address. He asked who lived in my home and if I was working. He asked if something happened to me who did I want the money to go to. He gave me a check reference number of 850585001271. Then he asked if there was a Dollar General, Family Dollar, or some other store like those. I said there was. He then told me to go there a get my registration card. When I questioned him why I would have to go to Dollar General to get a registration card, he stated to get my money I needed the number off the back of the card which I would have to purchased for $200. I then hung up on him. He called back several times. We left the call go to our answering machine only to have him call back. Finally I told him I would not go get a $200 card for him. The number called stated was from McCaysville, Ga.
