Scams involving sweepstakes and lotteries are increasing in Kentucky.

Attorney General Jack Conway says his office has received several calls from people who have either been notified that they won a prize, or have wired money and are now victims of a scam.

He says one victim reported losing nearly $10 thousand to what appeared to be a sweepstakes company.

Conway says Kentucky residents should disregard calls or notices from sweepstakes or lottery companies asking for upfront money.
