See our Fraud Prevention Tips to guard yourself.Be wary of phone calls claiming you've won a prize.

Most reputable companies notify winners by mail or fax only. So if you receive a phone call like this, just ask one simple question: "Is it free?" If not, hang up
Never send money to someone you don't know.Con artists ask you to wire money or send it by overnight courier, or provide bank account information so they can debit your account. Don't be foolish with your cash. Never pay anything to receive a prize.
