Victim Location 53097
Total money lost $28,000
Type of a scam Sweepstakes/Lottery/Prizes
Received a call from "James Tucker" stating I had won the lottery (which later changed to Publishers Clearing House, then back to an international lottery) and all I had to do was send $21,000 in order to redeem my prize. I sent a personal check to the GA address. I then received a second call informing me I would have to send more money for taxes. I sent a cashier’s check for just under $3k. I then received a third call asking for even more money. That’s when I hung up and called the ScamPulse.com . Per the BBB, *** PD, the *** *** GA Sheriffs Office and the FBI IC3 were contacted and complaints filed. I am hoping to get my money back.
