    I received a call from America Shoppers Network stating he wanted to deliver an amount of 1.5 million dollars and a mercedes benz. when asked what I should do to receive this, I was informed of a shipping and handling charge I would need to send him. when I informed him that if I had that amount due me to take the charges outof that. he became very vulgar he told me to come over and ""sit on his d..." then hung up. His phone number showed up on my caller ID 1876-509-7981.I called it back and asked to speak to his supervisor, he said there was no supervisor and to get off of his phone and hung up again,

    I just received my second call in less than one week stating that I had been chosen as either the grand prize winner for 3.5 million dollars or as the second place finisher for 450,000.00 dollars. They have everything except the CVV on the back of your credit card and almost sound convincing until they get to all you need to do is send them the shipping and receiving fee which amounts to anywhere from $150.00 to $2500.00. If any of you get these calls just hang up. The numbers they use are, 876-387-5606; 876-345-4661; 509-214-2708. Be vigilant.

    gullable me !
    Yes I received those calls too from 702 and 876 area codes.
    Fell for it and sent $ 500. through green money card (Paypal card).

    They still call for another $ 1,000.  Never I will never send any more money to those thieves!

    They even said they could reimburse that green card if I cannot send more. And they said a car mercedes benz pearl color was on its way from Las Vegas to my door...but they had to pay the $ 1,000. to the
    Attorney General for taxes and fees.

    Never again!!!!!

    This morning I received a call from a man who identified himself as "James Brown", and gave me his office # as 702-421-7006, and his cell # as 876-386-0750 and told me I had won $550,000 and a 2011 Mercedes Benz, and all I had to do was take $450 to Western Union Services and he gave me his Merchant Bankers name of Rohan Crooks (interesting last name) and the address of West Moreland, Jamaica, WI.  This was to cover the exemption sales tax fee for the Insurance.  Once I had paid the $450 to Western Union, they would give me a receipt with a control # on it, which was a 10-digit MCCN#, which would eleviate us from having to pay IRS taxes on the "gift".  All I had to do then was to call him back with that receipt # and Fedex would be delivering our "gift" within 2 hours.  I told him at the time that I knew it was a scam, and that in the US we have a phrase that "if it seems too good to be true, it probably is".  He assured me that it wasn't a scam, and so I figured I'd let him talk to my husband, and at that point, I figured he'd hang up.  He went through the same crap with my husband, and assured him that it was all on the "up and up". Mr. Brown stated that the $ from Western Union wouldn't actually be sent anywhere, and thqt if Fedex didn't make the delivery within 4 hours, we could go over and retrieve the $.  What a waste of time, but I called Western Union and they stated that the only way they could give us a receipt # would be if they actually sent the $ to the address given. I then called the State Police, the local police and the FBI, who hadn't heard of this scam, but knew of others that were out there and not to fall for it.  They continued to call back a total of 11 times, and told us we were making a "big mistake".  The last time they called I had already read this web site, and told them that I was turning them over to the Jamaican Embassy.  It's been 15 minutes since the last call, but I know "they'll be back!".

    This is the second time I have had a heartless idiot try to take my money.  I am disabled , always in a grreat deal of pain and have problems getting around. I make little money and can not work. They don't care they would take my entire months pay no hesitation. I am just saying we are seeing what happens when ppl are ruled by the evil one. This system of things is coming to an end and mean while ppl are evil themselves.  Please do not give these ppl a dime or any info they will rob u blind and not think twice. What makes me so upset is no authority is doing anything about this. Give us some resources ob how to get this guys and lock them behind bars where they deserve to be. Yes my sisters and brothers beware of this scam
