Got a call from Bill Russel today saying that I had won a 2014 Ford Explorer or one of three other prizes from either an online entry or entry at a mall. He said they had mailed documents to my house and got no response and this was there last attempt at contacting me. He said to call 866-781-5289 as soon as possible.
The first thing that raised my suspicion was that he had left a number on my home phone, which I never give out to people and certainly wouldn't put on a raffle of any sort. Then I entered the phone number into Google and wouldn't ya know, Bill Russel's name popped up! Needless to say I won't be calling Mr. Hussle, I mean Mr. Russel back.

I just received the same call from Bill Russell. The only Bill Russell I know is a Hall of Fame basketball player and it raised my suspicions immediately. I don't enter raffles and I don't EVER recall doing something like this.
