Scam Alert: Caller is claiming you must send money to receive a package being held. (See web for more details)
There is a scam going around where the caller tells you that you must send them $4500 to release a package they are holding (which they claim is a winning check for a couple of hundred thousand dollars).
Of course it's a scam and there's no need to report it unless you have provided any caller with any banking information. If you have fallen victim, contact your bank immediately and contact your local law enforcement agency.
Remember, never give out personal information and/or banking or credit/debit card information unless you initiate the phone call and are 100% certain of who you are talking with.
