Recieved a phone call from a blocked number just a bit ago. There was a man with a forgien accent on the line that claimed my mother had played "The Mega Millions Lottery" and she was entitled to 2.5 million dollars. After talking back and fourth the man (who was hard to understand and had trouble hearing anything I said) said that the money would be sent via UPS and that I had to pay a fee to appease the IRS. He claimed that I had to pay $199 dollars to cover the fee or a golden stamp that would help the large cash sum make it through the mail. He then proceeded to give me the name of "Tamykal James" at the address "West Moreland Ja/WI". I am assuming he wanted me to send the money to this man today. I told him that I didn't have any money and he asked if he should store the package untill I got it. I told him I never entered and lottery and he goes on to say "you told me yes, you had". I reply no I did not. He then says to me that there must be a mistake and hangs up. Everyone, this is obviously a scam and I ensure ABSOULTELY DO NOT fall for it. I didn't fall for this stupid fraud and neither should any of you.
