Every story is the same as mine Donald Farmer, $5,000 and $1,000 grocery store certificate. I was stupid enough to give him my info and then immediately contacted my bank and the local police department. Nothing has happened as of yet but this had to have been a scam based on all of these other people's stories.
Same as everyone above
Male caller asked for me by name saying his name was Wayne Davis from Publishers cash sweepstakes saying I had won $5,000 oh, I noticed he said Publishers cash sweepstakes not Publishers Clearing House he also then asked my age he knew what town I lived in and said I've been a faithful reader of their magazines which I have not ordered any magazines for decades anyways he also said I've never returned a bad check from them and had a valid credit card so my status what's good with them he asked me to get a pen to write down a confirmation number for my prize then I said why do I think this is a scam and he hung up! *NEVER GIVE BANK, CREDIT CARD INFO!!*
