I received 6 phone calls this morning claiming to be from Publishers Clearing House, John Tucker, 239-491-4157. He said I had won $2 million and a new car. He also said he needed $399 to verify I was who I am. I did not give him any money. I reported it to the Ohio State Attorney General's Office for them to follow up.
I attempted to call their number from a Google Voice number and a recording said I was calling a Magic Jack number.
Within the hour the phone rang again, same number, the man's voice was different and he claimed to be from the US Treasury Department.
I contacted the Publisher's Clearing House and the US Treasury Dept.
SCAM!!!
