Gave a claims # 25467. Knew my name. Claimed to be Dave Sayre from Publisher's Clearing House. Had an American accent. Said I had won 8.5 million $. Claimed to be legit. Needed 3,500.00$ for government registration. Would I be able to come up with the money. I said it depends, after I check out to make sure if this is a legit call.
