 I was immediately suspicious and told her nothing but to confirm my first name and address which she already had. She told me that the check for $500 thousand would be delivered by special courier on Monday the 5th of October between 9-11 AM. She started asking questions for a "survey". She would connect me to her "senior lawyer" Mr. Hamilton who would fill me in on the details of my prize winnings. I was not informative. I started asking her questions about herself and stated that I was suspicious. She hung up. I called the number back and it was, as expected, a bad number. 

On 1 Oct 2015 I received a phone call from a female with a pronounced foreign accent, possibly Filipino, identifying herself as Jane Wilson of the lawfirm Steen, Hamilton & Associates with news that I had won 2nd prize in the "Consumer's House" contest, associated with Publisher's Clearing House.  A $500 thousand dollar check would be delivered to me at my home on Monday the 5th October by "special courier" between 9-11 AM.  She said that she would transfer me to her "senior lawyer" Mr. Hamilton after a few questions for a survey.  Believing this to be a total scam I was less than informative, refusing to answer the questions except to confirm my first name and address, which she already had.  I began asking questions about her, particularly about her accent and country of origin.  She explained her accent saying that she had "...a sick today."  I pressed her with further questions and she abruptly hung up.  Upon calling back the number on my caller ID I got a busy signal and then a dead line.
