Lottery scam victim sent multiple $6,000 cash payments to stranger in Indianapolis
WRTV Indianapolis
INDIANAPOLIS — A lottery scam is making the rounds with Indiana ties and it’s costing victims thousands of dollars.
Here’s how the scam typically works. You get a phone call or text message claiming you’ve won the lottery even if you didn’t play.
The caller may say you have to pay taxes on your winnings, but it’s not real— it’s a ploy to get your personal information or your money.
