Victim Location 96818
Type of a scam Phishing
I answered my wife’s phone (which I am the sole account holder for our phone numbers) and the man on the other line was telling me that I won money from the "Mega Millions" Lottery. I tried my hardest to keep him on the phone to obtain more information because these types of scams are popular. I’ve heard of the "yes" I can hear you scam, so I avoided using the word "yes" but I noticed after I had said "ok" twice the man calling ended the phone call…maybe because he knew I was joking around with him and wasn’t serious? I’m very concerned about this, hoping that by saying "ok" just make me a victim to the phone scam.
