NORFOLK COUNTY - Norfolk OPP are reminding the public that you will never win a lottery you didn't enter and if something seems to good to be true it probably is.
A local senior is out $5,000 after falling victim to the aptly named "Lottery Scam." Police say the man was told he had won $2 million in a sweepstakes lottery and just needed to forward some money in order to cover the taxes to collect his wining's.
The OPP is warning all Norfolk County residents that if anyone should receive a call from an unknown person indicating that you have won any type of lottery or new vehicle, to please hang up the phone, this is a scam.
Constable Ed Sanchuk says unfortunately these scams are all to common in our society.
"Don't become a statistic. Fraud is a multi-billion dollar enterprise that will only stop when the scammers stop getting money, banking information or personal information. The best thing to do is to simply hang up the phone."
