Montreal Barristericanadian Lottery Scam

The caller claims to be an official with, or barrister representing, the Canadian Lottery. You have won second place prize in a large sweepstakes, $300,000 to $500,000, and must forward $30,000 to cover Canadian taxes before prize can be released from the company’s escrow or attorney trust account. If you pay, you will receive a reload call informing you that you have actually won first place and need to send more money.
