Pretending to be an "agent" for/of the PCH (Publishers Clearing House). As this progresses, this will be updated.
A few things to be noteworthy: this SCAMMER has an obvious accent which is believed to be Jamaican. Small cars and small bikes (motorcycles) typically used for transportation outside the US in poorer countries was noticed.
The script used was the same as the PCH SCAM goes: 1. You're a winner of $2 million (USD) (typically $2 to $10+ million PLUS a new 2019 Mercedes-Benz). 2. To receive the (FAKE, non-existent) money, you must pay a fee of X ($500 to $7000) to get it. Once the card number AND receipt number is given to the SCAMMER it takes seconds to have it transferred to their account and you won't know it. They'll block your number and nobody, including the US government or the card company, can or will help. As the saying goes "if it sounds too good to be true, it usually is". That means what you read or hear is a lie. NOTE: PCH will NEVER call or ask for tax money to be paid in advance. PCH just shows up at your door as a complete surprise.
