Imagine getting a call out of the blue while you’re abroad, and the voice claims you’ve won the Green Card Lottery but needs a $150 fee to process it. This pattern matches a classic scam that pops up in Europe, Asia and the Americas, using the same +1 929‑376‑0015 number. Callers often pressure for immediate payment and ask for debit‑card details, banking on confusion over immigration rules. If you didn’t apply for any lottery, hang up, block the number, and report it to your carrier and local fraud agency. Never share personal or financial data with unsolicited callers, and verify any official immigration program through government websites.
