Scam Description
I received a call within the last 2 days saying I won $2.7 million and 2020 Buick. I was told that the fees would be $7,000, but someone donating part of the money and I would need to send $300 by using a prepaid card, or putting it inside a envelope. When I told them I didn’t feel comfortable sending the money either of those ways, I suggested sending it by a money order and they agreed. When I called one of the numbers back there was a message saying the number was disconnected. I realized then it was a scam.
