Scam Description
I recieved a call from a woman named Susan Green who claimed to work with Publisher’s Clearing House. She said I won $5 million but I had to pay taxes on it upfront. She got evry upset with me because I wouldn’t give her my bank account information or my social security number. She then connected me to another woman named Linda Joy Olsen and a man named Mark Merchant. Mark said he worked for the Better Business Bureau. He apologized for eevrything Susan said and told me not to worry about her. I sent them $6,000 in the form of a cashiers check to 1342 Princeton Ave Trenton, NJ. 08638. Mark said he would deliver the $5 million check to my house.
