I received a call at 1am in the morning saying I had won 1 million dollars and a new car around Aug 22, 2022. His name was Michael B. I didn’t believe him but he still Congratulated me. I said Thank you. He only asked for my Email, Phone, and Address. Nothing else which impressed me. He also did not call me all week. But said they see me next week at my door for the prize and car.

I am getting phone calls from someone claiming to be from Publisher’s Clearing House and he insists that I am a winner and that he needs to deliver a car to me right now. I said I do not know anything about you or who you represent. He said I also am a winner of 2.8 million dollars. I said send me everything you have in writing by certified mail. He hung up. He called back and asked me why I hung up. i said to him to stop talking and listen to me–I want everything sent to me by certified mail. He said the car is ready to be delivered and that he can not send it by certified mail. I said hold the car for now and send me the details by certified mail and of anything else you have to say. He started talking—I hung up. He called back 5 more times and I disconnected the call each time. The phone number he used is 516 ###-####. Do something about this!!!!

I have 2 different voicemails that say I am a winner. Someone answered one phone and asked for $500.00. Yet the voicemail said they would send a check to take care of that. So after listening to the voicemail I tried to find a acct manager. Can someone call me and let me know? Or is this a scam?
