I am reporting this for my 86 year old grandmother. This man claimed to be James Smith and told her she won 2.5 million dollars! The next day he called and said in order to claim her prize she needed to send him a $250.00 vanilla visa card first. When she did not comply he called her 68 times the next day! We were told there was nothing that could be done to stop it! Please Help

I received a phone call from Robert Anderson claiming to be a Government Agent for the lottery saying that I should call 702 979 1794 to get the process started. He said I would need to send $1100.00 to Wells Fargo. Understand this is a scam and wanted to warn others.

Calls from multiple numbers starting with 876 initially telling you that you are a lottery winner but you must send them a fee which cannot be taken out of the winning proceeds. Calls come nonstop daily to office and cell. There is a lot online about the Jamaican lottery scam but they target older people and scare with threats of hurting family members.
