Description

This number had called my phone, knowing my home address first and last name claiming that I won a sum of $3.5 million by donating to an animal charity of last year.. they said I had one week to claim this win before the win expired and that I would have to ask for a loan of $1800 because I did not have any funds available in my account. The 1800 would be used to get the earnings and would also be apart of the taxes “ owed on this winning “ they had claimed that after I paid 1800 or was loaned this money they would set up an “ in person appointment with any bank that I choose to receive my wins “
