American Family Sweepstakes

Victim Location 79109

Type of a scam Sweepstakes/Lottery/Prizes

My daughter got a call from someone named Jason Dickerson who said he was with American Family Sweepstakes. He said that she won $1.5 million and they’ve been holding it for 2 months. Gave confirmation # 612631US.   He said she would just have to send $600 tonight and $600 tomorrow in order to secure the winnings. That’s when I got on the line with my daughter and told him you never have to pay money to get money. He disagreed with me and told me that’s just how their process works. I knew it was a scam and reported it to BBB.
