Scam Description
Received a call from Jimmy Brown that I had won 2nd place drawing of 2.5 million and to call and give this verificatio code and winni g number to Barbara Edward. I “won” 2.5 million plus a 2024 Ford and a gas card and 7,000 a month. 99% of the taxes would be paid, I just needed to pay 3,898 for my share of taxes. I said they could take it out of the winnings, she tried to convince me otherwise and hung up. She did say it was a special promotion for senior citizens
