Got unwanted call from 929-376-6737?
I received a robocall from 929.376.6737 telling me I'd won the Publishers Clearing House Sweepstakes for $7.5 million or a 2019 Mercedes Benz. I call them back and Albert Johnson tells me that this is legitimate and that a check will be delivered to me tomorrow at 10:45 am but that I need to call back tomorrow at 9 am to talk to the accounting dept. Albert Johnson asked me to verify my address, asked for names of beneficiaries but no other personal information. I continued to tell him this is too good to be true, he tells me calls are recorded and not to be afraid. He also tells me not to tell my friends or neighbors about this. He wanted to know if I wanted to accept the winnings privately or publicly. After hanging up from him I googled the number and found out it is indeed a scam.
