Got unwanted call from 876-443-3209?
I received a phone call from 876-378-8422 which came up as coming from Kingston, Surrey County (after that it said Jamaica but I would have had to be able to open it to see that on my phone). I was told the caller's name is Kevin Smirgh and he was calling on behalf of Publisher's Clearing House. He told me I had won $250K and a new Mercedes Benz. I didn't believe him since I don't do PCH but I played along. He told me they are going to deliver my prize to my home today (and he knew what state I was in --- probably from my area code). He told me to call 1-876-443-3209 and speak with that department about my winnings and set up delivery. I asked him if that is a toll-free number and he said no---it is a "long line" number. I suspect if I called that number I would be charged exorbitant amounts of money per minute and they would keep me on the line as long as possible. I GOOGLED the number they told me to call and it is tied to and has been reported as being associated with fraud.
