I received a call from a man named Mark stating I had won the Mega Millions Sweepstakes. They wanted me to go buy a $200.00 Visa gift card. This did not sound right, I called the ScamPulse.com for help.

David Sawyer keeps calling me. He says he represents Mega Millions. He said because I didn't take care of this last year, I have to pay a fee to get my winnings. He asked for $486. He told me to go to a store which sells Vanilla gift cards. I told him I'm on Social Security and can't afford it. He called back and said I had won $10 million from Publisher's Clearing House. He asked for my checking account number. I said no. He said he had a solution and that I should go to another bank and open an account, and he would deposit $16,000.

I received a phone call yesterday from Mr. O' Donnell. He said my husband won $15.5 million Mega Millions. I told him my husband is deceased. He said I have a right to the money. Also won a Mercedes Benz he would deliver. I gave the Social Security number. Savings and Checking account numbers. He did not ask for money. Now he keeps calling me. I did not realize it was a scam until I contacted my friend. She told me it is a scam. She is helping me. I reported it to my bank.

Just got a letter explaining Winning a Mega Millions Spanish sweepstakes held on 26th April, 2021...batch #'s 0136215, etc. Should come to Madrid to claim! If not able, then you must be responsible for home delivery fee and insurance fee to be paid to their accredited diplomat before a certified check could be sent to my home address... And, a wire transfer could go directly to my bank account but I would be responsible for ' theCost' of Transfer charges. Keep "Confidential " and don't discuss with anybody! SCAM? I did NOT respond, but sent this to you BBB.

The scammer called and talked to my father and told him he won $400.000 and a 2021 Merladies all he had to do was to go to CVS buy a $500 gift card and they would meet him just look at the card and receipt then the car and money would be delivered to his home address. This man on the phone assured him this was not a scam and that he would get the prize he just need to do this so my dad went to CVS. I right away call 911 had an officer meet him at CVS and intercept this. My dad did not buy the gift card but did call the man and let the officer talk with him. This man called Kevin hung up on the officer from my dads phone and the officer call from his phone to only get hung up on again. This was a complete scam and I hope other learn from this.

About a month ago, they initially called and told me I won $5.5 mil through Megamillions. I sent them a total of $37000 for taxes. I mailed $1500 in cash to an address in Florida. Now they are asking me for an additional $10000 for more taxes.

Got a call from Conner Pruit, Consumer Guide Official with Mega Millions informing me that I have won $450,000. Eventually, he got to the point of asking me for $900 for Insurance and another $100 handling fee. He said for me to call 702-997-0391 and she would send him some documents so the check could be processed. At this point, I knew it was wrong and dropped the whole thing.

Peter Watson called me on a Saturday Saturday claiming I won 5.5 million dollars and a Mercedes Benz. Wanted my address. I'm not entertaining it further. I gave him my address but I'll stop now before he asks for any money. People are so twisted :(

I received a call on my cell phone today from Mega Millions. The caller Albert Hamilton said I won $3.5 million and a 2019 Mercedes Benz. I had to pay $275 to receive my prize. I think that is the delivery fee. He told me to go to Walmart or CVS and get a $275 Amazon Gift card. I was to call him back when I got the gift card. I told him it sounded like a scam. He told me driver would come and pick up the Amazon card. He would then hand me the $3.5 million check. He kept telling me not to tell anyone. I did not get the gift card. I figured it was a scam. I did call him back at 876-502-4195. I had to press 63 to reach him.

I'm 84 years old. I got a call yesterday from a man who said a package would be delivered to my home today at 2:30pm. He had a strong accent. He said I owuld have to pay taxes on the money. He told me to call back at 19-177-811-1004. Then a woman named Linda Thomas called, she said I had won the Megamillions, and I'd won over a million dollars. She had an accent. She asked if I was married, and if I wanted to keep it private, and whether I wanted it direct deposited into my account, or mailed to my home. I askd where she was calling from and she said FL. I told her I needed to check with BBB, she replied that's fine. Then I said my daughter is an accountant and she would check it out, then she hung up. She knew my name, address and phone number.

I received a call and spoke with a man who said I won $14.8 million dollars in the Mega Million. I must first pay $465 in order to receive the certified check. Apparently he has my home address and said he would come to my home to pick up the money and leave the check. When I told him I didn't have the money he said I should borrow it. He asked if I owned my home but I told him I rent. He then said he will need a copy of my rent receipt, full ID info and the name of the bank where I would deposit the certified check. // I contacted ScamPulse.com and will also be calling the local police department because he has my home address.

This man “Kurt Ocannor” has called and emailed my elderly father and convinced him that he has won money and a car. I’m not sure what information my father shared with him as he is forgetful and doesn’t understand or remember that these are always scams!

I received a call from the listed person, and James Kennedy last Friday Afternoon, telling me that I was a “Lucky Winner”, and in order to receive the prize, all I had to do is to pay $1,500, a “Stamp Tax” so they could bring my winnings across State Lines. Once I told them I would not be able to pay the fee until the 3rd of April, they said that they would send me the information about what account at Wells Fargo Bank to deposit the funds into. Once they were notified that the deposit had been made, the “Reward Squad” would be dispatched to the closest Airport the next day, and that they would come to our home to present us Cash And a New Mercedes!
