I got a letter saying important delivery letter. Inside that they written that :
Dear Ritesh,
we are trying to reach you regarding your $2,100,000.00 sweepstakes id#*****.
Please call us at the above number. This is a free call.
Sincerely - Pat Haines, Sales representative.
Expiration Notice: we must hear from you by the deadline on the front of this mailer. Otherwise your id number will expire.
After reading this letter, I called them and tried to find out which company is this. I didnt give any personel infomation. They asked me if I have visa or maestro card, I said yes. Thats all. After that I felt that it is something fraud and check on the site. There are many complains like this. Now I am just worried what harm they can do to me? Do I need to report police ?
Kindly guide me.
Thanks

There is no need to report anything to the police as you wouldn't have a reason to...
First of all, before we get to the point of saying, "This is our way of saying thank you for being a major credit card holder," we have to get your sweepstakes i.D. number which holds your information... the only information we have is your name, address, and the telephone number you called from... This information was sold to us by your credit card company... and we're not the only company it gets sold to...
That's just life and how business is conducted, but if you didn't give a credit card number or even if you did, you have absolutly nothing to be alarmed about...
