-setting up a deposit into my bank account (I gave no personal account numbers, etc.)
-getting a "claimer card number" #4149-9413-57 for CVS (given to me by the scammer)
-setting up a time (5:00 pm) September 2, 2021 for the UPS delivery service to pick up my "Claimer Card"
-instructed to go to CVS to obtain a One Vanilla card for $299 before 5:00 pm (When asked if I could travel, I told the scammer I had just gotten out of the hospital (true) and was not sure I was capable of traveling today. She asked if a caregiver could go for me!--no remorse here for a senior adult just out of the hospital!!!!) The scammer was sly enough to never mention money....just "two ninety-nine". When I asked if that meant $2.99, she was slightly taken aback and mumbled $20 would be okay.
-at this point, she said it would be easier to just make a direct deposit in my account.....I told her my husband refused to let me have any dealings with our bank account (not true) and I was not feeling well......and hung up.
I was called on Sunday 8/15/2021 by Charlie Goodman, who claimed I had won the Publishers Clearinghouse sweepstakes. I called him back on Monday 8/16/21 for details. He told me I had won $3.7 million to be given to me as a certified check and also $5,000 a week for life. I was told open a bank account and call him back with the routing and account numbers. He gave me a passcode and winning number for verifying my identity. I was told I would not have to pay any taxes. He did not ask for money upfront but did tell me not to tell anyone or speak to any other representatives from Publishers Clearinghouse that may call. He said they would also come to my house to award the prize. He knew my address but I did not give him any other personal information. I called the real Publishers Clearinghouse and was told that this was a scam and that they never call anyone, they just show up at the home.
