Peron identified himself as Dave Sayers with the Publisher's Clearing House. He claimed that the Clearing House was making past clearing house winners of a prize. I asked, "when did I submit an entry for a drawing?" He said the entry date was not important. I stated the date is important to me. He said the entry was dated March 16, 2020. I told him I did not submit an entry. that was the middle of Covid-19, he agreed and we argued about whether I did or didn't. Then asked if I wanted the prize. I said yes, but I would not answer any questions. He said there were certified letters involved. I said I would not answer questions. He asked if I was married and I refused to answer his question. I asked if I could call him back tomorrow. He wanted to know what time. I responded I didn't know because had a lot on my plate tomorrow. I asked if I could reach him at the number on my caller ID and he said yes and I hung up.
