Got a good one yesterday.
Apparently I won $67,000 because I shopped at Best Buy sometime in the past 3 years.
Fed Ex will be delivering to me a cashiers check for the money, but I have to pay the delivery fee of $500 via a CVS gift card.
Why can’t I wait to cash the check and take $500 out of that to pay the fee?
NO! By law we cannot accept cash. Now give me your name and address so we can schedule delivery of your prize. We will call you back so you can give me the numbers from the gift card!
For a guy that sounded exactly like Apu from the Simpsons this guy got pretty pissy.
I won 67K but they don’t know my name?
I’m sorry, but anyone who were to fall for this horseshit deserves to lose $500.
They ought to do a remake of the movie “The Sting”. Only the scams are so bad and ridiculously obvious the con men lose money everytime. It gets to the point where people look forward to these schmucks calling them up so they can fuck with them. Robert Redford is still alive, isn’t he?
