8762848539

Called my cell phone about 7 times in a row.  Very heavy accent. When I asked him to repeat himself, because I could not understand him, he said F..k you and hung up.  The next call consisted of this man yelling "What is your business?". Again, I asked him to clarify what he was asking and he again ended the call with F..k you! He then proceeded to do the exact same thing 6 additional times until I finally dismissed the call. I did not receive any further calls after this. The place called from was Jamaica. The number was 876-284-4180. I never heard anything about a prize, because I could not understand due to heavy accent. I agree with other commentators that this most assuredly was some sort of scam.

Said he liked my voice and wanted to date me. Females beware!

This number called my work phone and said I had won $850,000...I hung up, then called the number on my cell phone and gave a fake name and address. I was going to just screw with him, but I got a call on my work phone and had to hang up. He then called back 27 times. I finally got off my work call and answered it and answered it and told him he had the wrong number. He asked for my name and I gave him a different fake name. He asked me to hold while he looked up my information and came back and said I had won $850,000, so I told him my real name was the first fake name I gave him and I guess he realized I was messing with him so he said "[***] you" and hung up. Haven't received another call from him

They told me I won $350000

• You should beware of Geeks bearing gifts, specially if the gift is a wooden horse with termites, or a statement that your computer is infected.
