This phone number was used to try and scam my mother to believe she had won a prize of $2.5 million dollars in a contest. Mr. Tony Anderson, said to purchase a $100.00 vanilla Visa gift card to pay for the delivery charge of the prize package. I checked the number with your service and you are not able to verify it belonging to the Federal Trade Commission. I feel that this is a scam.
