Description
Received call from 505-556-6187 that said I won the Readers Digest Sweepstakes in the amount of 588,000.00. They said they did not need any person information from me. The did ask me for my postal address and it was provided to them. Then they asked me if I owned my home or rented. I informed them that was none of their business and is personal. Then he said he could not send me the prize because they did not have the correct postal address. I was asked to call 516-224-0920. I know that Readers Digest has my correct postal address. I did not provide them any additional information and ended the call.
