312-962-0230

Prize/contest hoax

I didn't recogonize the number so I didn't answer.  They didn't leave a message.  This came on my cell #. All my phones are on the DNC list. I've had it with these idiots trying to waste my cell minutes. arggggg

This number calls 3-4 times a week, and when I answer, they hang up.

This the Lincoln Navigator prize giveaway scam. A man named "Bill from the Price Distribution Center" left me a message 06/13/08 8:43PM stating that the contest I had entered a while ago (no specifics) was over, they had good news, wanted me to give him a buzz back. The number on my caller ID was 312-962-0230 with "unavailable" as the name, but the number they wanted me to call back was 800-996-0081.

I didn't call back as A) I was pretty sure I hadn't entered any such contest; and B) with the price of gas, I'm better off with my 1995 Geo Prizm (paid for, low taxes).

I received the same info today as Bernadette Pesce did on June 14, 2008. Could this be a jaded judging agency employee? Weird, to say the least. This 312 area code was a local call for me.

Got called twice this week, once last week.  I texted them to stop calling me.  Hope they get charged for texts if it is a cell phone.

Didn't pick up, no message. Call ID came up "jeffrey laundy."

They call my cell and hang up. Very annoying.

Received call from this number, but know-one there when answered.

Comcast records and sends you a text message.  Here's their note says:

You have a new Voicemail message from: 312-962-0230.
"Hi this is Richard here with the Price distribution Center calling in regards to the contest that was entered sometime back in hopes of winning a brand-new SUV. Well the contest is officially over we are looking at your entry. We have very good news for ya. What we need you to do is give us a buzz toll free here in the office as soon as possible. The number is 18664303177. Again that's toll free 1866430317704 to hearing from you soon and congratulations."

(I suggest calling 312.962.0230 and then hanging up.)
