I received a number of phone calls regarding a big Sweepstake win, and I was immediately asked for up-front monies. There was getting through Customs with the money which required that some partial Taxes be paid, and there was a Courier who was to be paid, and on and on it went until I was asked about my available funds on my credit card, if I had a regular Direct Deposit, and what was the bank's name. I couldn't believe what I was hearing: it was just as all the WARNINGS say about SCAM people. I fold P.J. Thomas that I saw no end to his personal inquiries in his effort to get money. I finally got him to yield to my preference to FORFEIT the big sum of money just to not waste time with his SCAMMING. He used to call 3-4 times a day but THE THEIF finally gave up.
