Which are correct?

1) Go to anyone and they'll tell you the same thing.
2) Go to whoever and they'll tell you the same thing.

3) Go anywhere and people will try to swindle you.
4) Go wherever and people will try to swindle you.

5) If he asks you a question, just tell him anything.
6) If he asks you a question, just tell him whatever.
 
I think they are at least passable.
 
1) Go to anyone and they'll tell you the same thing. OK.
2) Go to whoever and they'll tell you the same thing. Unnatural.

3) Go anywhere and people will try to swindle you. OK.
4) Go wherever and people will try to swindle you. Unnatural.

5) If he asks you a question, just tell him anything. OK
6) If he asks you a question, just tell him whatever. Not very natural.
That's how they appear to me.
