(202) 470-6987

I got a call from two different numbers 210-764-4387 and 305-704-7521 and was told to call 202-470-6987 to receive my 25,000 I was awarded by the Federal Government, needless to say I did not call them back.

Just an update, waited 30 min on hold to the "Las Vegas Dream Foundation" before I hung up the phone.  Called right back and got the answering machine.  Left my first name and my phone number and asked for someone to call me back about a claim number that I have.  We'll see if anyone calls.

I got this call this morning while in the shower.  Called it back and someone picked up and said "Landmark" and I said I was returning a phone call.  I was then put on hold and a gentleman by the name of "John Daily" picked up and said I had entered some drawing and that I had won $350,000 and that he was from the "Federal Trade Commission" and that they were making sure that the prizes that were awarded were being done so properly.  He then proceeded to give me a Claim # and said that the sponsor of the drawing was the "Las Vegas Dream Foundation" and gave me their number.  He then said that a cashier's check would be arriving via courier and that I needed to pay some $3,500 for the "Courier Fee" before this "Cashier's check" would be delivered.  He asked if I was going to be able to pay for it today and that he would get me the "closest office" to me that he could so I could take the money there.  I asked him if I could call him back and he said yes, he was there till 5pm EST.  After doing some checking on the internet (and finding this post) I attempted to call him back at 4:30 EST but no answer, just a machine saying "Please leave a message".  Then I called the number he gave me for the "Las Vegas Dream Foundation" and asked for some information on the company.  A lady put me on hold for what has been 20 min now and still nobody has picked up.  Sounds like a SCAM to me.  Funny thing is that I have gotten at least one letter a day for the last week from different things such as "UBI Payment Services", "National Awards Advisory Center", "Data Release Division Office", and so on telling me how I have won "X" million dollars and all I have to do is send them $20 for the "paperwork fees".  In all of these letters, they spelled my name the SAME incorrect way that the gentleman that called from the "Federal Trade Commission" did.  The phone number he gave me to reach him was (202) 470-3912 yet the number on my caller ID on my cell phone was (202) 470-3926.  Just wanted to get ALL the details in so that hopefully nobody will fall victim to this SCAM!  Good luck everyone.-J.R.S.

received a hang up phone call

At least four calls in the last two days.  I missed the first three, but when I answered this past time, no one was there.

I picked up the call today, and it's The Washington Post.  They are attempting to resubscribe former subscribers.

I got a call from them today. They have to be in debt collection. I know it's not from The Washington Post because I have never in my life subscribed to that or any other newspaper. They also used my maiden name, which was quite odd. I just told them noone by that name lives here and used a tone of voice like I had no clue who she was talking about. Hopefully that will end that.

Keep calling, as late as nine pm, every day sveral tiems a day.  I answer- line goes dead.

I keep getting calls from this number and they don't leave a message. Of course, I don't answer unknown callers. I also cancelled a recent subscription to Post.

Just got another call from this number.  Very annoying as they hang up every time I answer the phone.  How do you make it stop?

LandMark Communications: specializing in telemarketing, debt collection, etc.

I'm from Texas, never subscribed to the Post.  When I called the number back, message says they are "LandMark", basically a telephone service company.  Claim they will remove number if you leave a voice message.

3 calls in three days, including weekends, evenings.  No messages left.

Same thing has been happening with me - I get these calls from this number all day long!  My # is on the DO NOT CALL REGISTRY.  Apparently it's from a company called Landmark Telemarketing.  I also was a Post subscribed that cancelled last month.  I bet that is EXACTLY where they got the telephone number from.  We should get the word out - DON'T SUBSCRIBE TO THE POST!

Been receiving these calls for about a week- several times a day no messages ever left- really annoying- calls come morning and night- I am on the no call list, my number is unlisted, and I don't know how to make them stop.

Third day in a row I have received a call from this number. I didn't answer the phone and no message was left.

i got a call out of no where from this number, they didn't leave a message

This person called and never left a message...

Daily calls and hanging up

I keep getting calls from this number,

3rd call in three days for me - I don't answer it, and they don't leave msg. I was a Post subscriber - cancelled last month.
