It is not a phone call, but a number listed for you to call in a scam letter from "Allstate." Be advised that Allstate has reported this scam on their website. Do NOT cash the check for approximately $4,980. It claims that you have won $250,000 in the "annual CONSUMER'S PROMOTIONAL DRAW" citing several major retailers such as Target, Walmart, Macy's, Home Depot, etc. It looks almost legitimate. However, the Allstate logo at top looks like a scanned image and I figured a company as big as that could afford, not only to not have a slightly blurry letterhead, but one in color as well. Other info includes a "tax agent" named Karen Turner complete with a fake address (I tried to find it using google maps and the street does not exist) 3008 Dunsmyer Ave, Chicago, IL. Note that there is no Zip code listed. Suspicious. It mentions that your prize money will be delivered by "a courier company."
