Lastly, do not return their phone call, the 876 is not a toll free "800" number. It is the international area code for Jamaica. You will be charged long distance and international call fee for placing the call:

Have rec'd 6 calls today telling me I won 2.5 million dollars. Need to go get Green Dot card from WalMart of Walgreens for $200.00 and $ will be delivered today with a General Attorney and a U.S. Marshall coming with the delivery of the check. Checked with WalLMart & Walgreen's. Walgreen's familiar with scam, WalMart was not aware of scam. I insisted they take my name off their list and do not call me again. So, they just kept calling. They insisted WalMart & Walgreen's was lying and not to shop there, that they were the ones scamming me. Some old person will probably fall for something like this. Infuriates me!
