"Paul" leaves a message (it seems to always be Paul so it must be a code for a certain region or something) saying that due to my entry in a contest I have won one of four major prizes. The only contest I have entered within the past two years is to win a new car at a local mall. Many questions were asked when I called and when I tryed to fool them and said Paul was not the one who called, and that it was Martha that called the operator got very confused to the point of anger almost.
I was eventually told that I was disqualified from the prize because it was open only to married couples. Of course nothing on the form I filled out said anything about having to be married to win any prize. This is hard to figure out if it is a scam or not. When I asked what the prizes were the operator "John" (yeah, right) would not tell me what they were after 3 attemps at asking. I'm sure they make a good chunk of money keeping you online asking all sorts of dumb questions. It really p*sses me off that my DO NOT CALL number was sold to someone who obviously had nothing to do with the company who auctioned off the new car. Oh well.
