Two men called today telling us that we had won $3.5 million dollars as a second place prize in a contest. The money was supposed to be being held by Bank of America. The names given us by those who called were Mike Jenson and a Mr. Lewis. They called us from [protected] and [protected]. We want to report this scam to Bank of America. They told us that we needed to send them $2, 500.00 in order to receive our $3.5 million. Bob and Diane Hickel 678 Hickel Rd. Hartford, WV 25247 Phone [protected] [protected]@frontiernet.net

We hope that other senior citizens who receive these calls do not believe them and respond by sending them any money. It is a disgrace that these individuals have the nerve to use the name Bank of America in attempting to scam people out of their money.
Thank you,
Bob and Diane Hickel

I had the same thing happen and they were relentless. They sent me all kinds of phony documents as a Graphic Arts teacher retired I immediately saw the fews in the documents. Then they had a form asking for me to pay the tax on the winnings. It had a place for a foreign transfer. Finally the guy called me asking me why I did not want to take the earnings. I pointed out his errors. I told hm Bank of America is based in the U.S.A. and would not need to transfer money from off shore. They finally gave up. I tried to get them to send me a document in the U.S.Mail but they evidently knew that would be mail fraud and they have not tried again since that conversation.
