SCAM UPDATE- Make-A-Wish Sweepstakes?


AARP and the Make-A-Wish Foundation are warning everyone about scammers who pose as being from the “Consumer Protection Agency” or the Federal Trade Commission” making phone calls claiming that you have won second place, $450,000, in a Make-A-Wish sweepstake. You just need to send them $4,500 in processing fees to claim your prize. There is no such agency called the Consumer Protection Agency and the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) does not offer sweepstakes.

If you receive a call telling you that you have won something out of the blue, hang up. It’s a scam!
