The call is almost certainly a classic sweepstakes scam, using a generic winner claim to lure you into sharing personal info or paying fees. The repeated use of the same script and the name "Deanna" points to a scripted operation rather than a legitimate contest. Hang up immediately and block the number; never provide banking details or request payment to claim a prize. If you’re curious, verify directly with the official Publishers Clearing House website—not the caller. Keep a log of these calls and report them to your carrier or the FTC to help curb future attempts.
