I was called about winning the publishers Clearing house sweepstakes for Readers Digest. I was asked to go to Walgreens or several other stores to complete the registration, however none of them were available near our area in rural Wyoming. Furthermore I have no transportation since the trucks were being used to haul cattle today. They then wanted me to make out a check to “Merchant Banker Acquitta Shelby for 485.00. Then take a picture of it and send it to them and then mail it to **** ********* *** ****** ** *****. I told them I could not got to the post office as I don’t have any transportation. I did send photo of check but did not sign it. Since it is Saturday my bank is closed but I will call Monday morning to put a stop on the check number. They were very aggressive and ultimately due to the fact I couldn’t complete the registration today that they would have to wait until that is completed to deliver the sweepstake prize. They called from ###-###-#### the individual said he was James Bishop and his so called boss was Mr Nelson. I hope this helps find the scammers!
