I took a call for my husband from Anthony Spencer On Friday. He told me that my husband had won a sweepstakes prize. He said he did not know which sweepstakes it was, but he would call back to give me the name of the attorney who would handle the account. He called back and gave the name of Harold Winston. (I really didn't expect to hear back because I was very suspicious and asked a lot of
questions.) Today,Monday 6\7/10 I received a call from Harold Winston, who said he was the attorney handling this account. He again said he represented Rothschild Securities and gave me the correct spelling and address because I said I couldn't find themlisted on tne better business bureau.Harold Winston gave me the number 718-732-1310 as his direct line, so I could call him back. He gave me a lot of info about Rothschild Securities and told me the name of the sweepstakes was Spanish El Gorgo.
He made a joke of my not remembering entering this sweepstakes 11 months ago. Beware! He used the names of legitimate companies and sweepstakes. I looked up this sweepstakes on Google and found the following remarks on scamwatch: "Lottery scams will often use the names of legitimate overseas lotteries (often Spanish lotteries) so that even if you do some superficial research, the scam will seem real....It is IMPOSSIBLE for you to win these lotteries if you have not bought a ticket from an authorized distributor in Spain."
