Lottery Text Scam? How to Stop Randy Corbett Calls!
Summary — +17172879830
Expert Opinion
Sounds like you’re getting texts claiming a lottery win from someone named Randy Corbett. Those messages fit a classic scam pattern that tries to harvest your personal information by promising a cash‑out. Never reply or click links, and avoid sending any ID or banking details. Block the number on your phone and add it to any carrier‑level spam filter. Report the incident to the FTC at reportfraud.ftc.gov, forward the text to 7726 (SPAM) to help carriers block future messages, and consider filing a report with your state attorney general. Staying skeptical and acting quickly keeps your data safe.
