NEED YOUR BANK ACCOUNT NUMBER FOR WINNINGS

Do not give your bank account information to someone via email or someone calling you and saying they are from some business. They do not want your bank account information to give you money or winnings or stock or whatever prize they are promising. They want your bank account information, so they can steal your identity and open credit cards in your name or worse clean out your bank account money. If they say they are your bank or credit card company, then tell them you will call them back. Look up the correct phone number for your bank and call that. Do not call a number they give you. You may take the number and look it up on the internet to see if it is your bank though. Your bank or credit lender will not call you asking for this information. If they do, then something is fishy, in other words it stinks. Do not give your bank account number out. Period.
