rec'd call in march about some contest i never entered - bogus from the start

Wow, I can't believe it, John Hill from whatever company called and said I won $25,000 from a contest I never entered, and I'm supposed to call back right away to claim!  My luck has changed, just like he said!  I'll be sure to call that 866 number right away!  (end sarcasm)

Same prize winning message but new name: John Hill.

I rec'd a call today from Jeff Gray of 708-441-3679 (caller ID info) identifying himself as John Hill of a Prize Notification Dept. telling me I had entered a 25000 cash giveaway drawing within the last year and that "my luck has changed" and to please call him ASAP at 1-866-933-6012.

Not a chance.

I got the same call this morning from a man named John Hill saying I too had one a contest I entered within the past year and that my luck was finally turning around.  Told me to call 1-866-933-6012 to claim my prize. Right - not in this life time.  Call came from 312-625-5540.  A Chicago exchange.  Look out people.

Got a call from John Sunday evening about 7.  I am so glad my luck has changed...  The caller ID said "Unknown".  I am going to try reporting to the DNC lists since he gave a phone number to call back.

I was called and told to call back the above number about a 25,000Home make-over
and  all they asked is my Zip code when I called back...and
i was told my name would be put in the final drawing and they hung up..didn't ask my name , pho .# or anything else..just my zip code

I also received a call from 1866-933-6012, a Mr. McDermin on 3/14/2013 around 6:45PM, I won $25,000 that I entered some time ago, but they didn't have any contact name when he called, funny now they aren't giving away cars, now it's cash

This so called Tim McDermond called my phone and left a message that I had won a contest with them and to call back.  Left the phone number 866-933-6012.  Total SCAM!  I sure don't recall entering any contest for $25K.

A Tim McDermot left a message re a $25K prize and that the contest was over and they had my name in front of them.  He congratulated me and and gave me this number to call back ASAP.

SPAM SPAM SPAM

Got a call..hey, guess what I 'maybe' won 25K.....!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

A Tim McDermot left a message re a $25K prize and that the contest was over and they had my name in front of them.  He congratulated me and and gave me this number to call back ASAP.  Yes, I fell for it and called back - asked for his name - a woman came on and "verified" my last name and wished me luck in the end-of-June contest.  WHAT are these people after?  What can I do to remove my name from their computer?

Got the same call from Tim McDermond? Says he's calling in regards to an unnamed contest to win $25K and says he's got a good news.  Doesn't mention what company he's from or my name, which got me suspicious.

called saying i won 25000.00 in a contest i did not enter

Received the call on Valentine's day.  Please call me back Tim McDermon.  I would love to talk to you in person.  I will be waiting for your call.

got the same call more than once and when I asked the women on the other end of the line how many other drawings and showed her that I was sceptical she begin too get upset and ignore my further questions. yes also TimMcdirmon what ever 25k Ive never joined any contest, Told my wife it was probably a skam shes kinda a sucker.

Received a telephone message from Tim McDermon. He left a message on the answering machine lastnight at 8:00 pm. stating to call 1-866-933-6012 regarding a contest for $25K entered some time ago.  Tim did not have the name of the person who supposedly entered the contest nor does he provide the name of the contest or the company he's pretending to represent. All Tim states is good news  and "congratulations!"

I did a search on google for the telephone number.  I read a multitude of post whereby many received the same call (From Tim or Alex).  Per other callers the number is orginating out of 312-962-0234 or 0230 or 0225 which is a Chicago number.  This is FIshing.

Tim McDermon just left a message on our machine today saying we should call 1-866-933-6012 regarding a contest for $25K entered some time ago.  He is from the "official notification department" but doesn't name the contest or the company he's pretending to represent and he says has good news for us & "congratulations!"  Really???!  He doesn't name the person here who supposedly entered the contest AND he doesn't actually say anyone won.  Give me a break!  I would love $25K--anyone else would too.  Hopefully no one is caught in this scam which I assume is designed to get personal information that will be used to perform some kind of financial fraud.

this number cross references with a bogus (no answer) number 312 488 1854 from some prerecorded voice of a person stating their name is Alex Spice....won a 2013 Hybrid....sorry Alex, but I don't like Hybrids!!!  keep it for yourself and stop calling....

I too received a call from this number saying his name is alex price and the contest was coming to an end for the 2013 Hybrid and 25,000 cash drawing and that I should call back as soon as possible they have good news and congratulations.    sorry charlie won't be falling for that one.

Yeah, same too.

This caller (Private Name, Private Number) left a message on my machine saying that they were Tim McDurmin from the Official Notification Department. They mentioned a sweepstakes that was entered in the past year, and that they did a drawing for $25,000. He says that they have good news, and that we should call (866)933-6012 immediately. This is clearly a scam. If they call again, I will likely be using my whistle.

Ditto Got the call 12/31/2012

This is the same problem keeps happening over and over how to stop thees idiots same person at my friends house same # all about time shares they call us everyday same time and wake us what a pain.

same thing as reported by other callers about same message that i had won a cadilac escalade said he was from notification dept. and his name was tim mcdermit

Yeah, so I supposedly won an escalade. Ive never even entered a contest for one, yeah sure buddy. Phishing scam.

Tim McDermond calls at 8pm from a number that comes up as "unavailable"...calling a number I just got and never gave out, says he's from "the Official Notification Department" in regards to the (unnamed) contest  I entered for the new Cadillac Escalade, with GOOD NEWS! and I must call him back as soon as possible at their toll free number 1-866-933-6012.

Are people really this dumb?  Thanks but no thanks, I'm good.
This is a scam people, they are phishing for your info.
