Prize scam call from New York number (516) 412-8480

Contacted on my cell phone from a New York location, (516) 412-8480, by someone claiming to be from Publishers Clearing House Imposter. Person stated that I had won money and a 2026 vehicle, and would I be home to receive my prize. He gave me some numbers to write down: Winner's number, package number.

He then transferred me to his manager, Bob Williams, who asked me some general questions. He did not ask for any of my financial information. He then started telling me I needed some verifying paper work, and how close was I to a Dollar Store. He said he would stay on the phone so I would know what to say to the people at the store to receive my info. He glossed over purchasing a cash scratcher card ??? I didn't understand this part.

Also both men's grammar was not the best. Even sent me a picture of the new car I had won.
