When I get phone calls like this, the conversation usually goes
something like:
me: I won!! Really! Oh man, that's awesome!
them: Yes. We just need your bank account number to deposit your
winnings.
me: Oh man, I would, but my wife & I are going through a nasty divorce
and she has my bank account locked down. Besides, I don't want her to
find out about it. How about if I just come by and pick up the check
in person; where is your office?
them: We're in another state, and we have to have the account number for
tax purposes.
me: well, ok. I suppose I can go open an account with no money in it
that my wife doesn't know about. Can I have your phone number to call
you and let you know when it's open?
them: --click--
