WHEN MY CELL PHONE RANG, THE CALLER ID GAVE THE NUMBER AS A JACKSONVILLE FLORIDA NUMBER. FOOLISHLY, I ANSWERED IT, BUT DIDN'T RECOGNIZE THE NUMBER, AND THERE WAS NO NAME. A MAN WITH A HEAVY JAMAICAN ACCENT INFORMED ME I HAD WON 2.2 MILLION DOLLARS, AND A BRAND NEW MERCEDES FROM PUBLISHER'S CLEARINGHOUSE, DELIVERABLE UPON RECEIPT OF A $200 VANILLA VISA, OR AMERICAN EXPRESS, PREPAID CARD, OBTAINABLE FROM WALMART, OR OTHER SIMILAR LOCATION, AND WITHIN 30 MINUTES. I HAD, ONLY, TO OBTAIN THE CARD, AND RETURN HOME TO RECONTACT HIM WITH THE INFORMATION ON THE CARD, WHICH WAS TO BE A FEE OF SOME SORT, WITHOUT WHICH I COULD NOT RECEIVE MY PRIZES, AND WHICH MUST BE OBTAINED WITHIN THE 30 MINUTE DEADLINE. AS I WAS A BIT BORED, I PLAYED ALONG WITH HIS LINE OF BOVINE FECES, UNTIL I BEGAN TO LAUGH, AND HE HUNG UP. THE NEXT MORNING, A SUNDAY, MY PHONE RANG, AS CHURCH WAS ENDING, AND IT WAS HIM, CALLING BACK TO ASK WHY I HADN'T COMPLIED WITH HIS INSTRUCTIONS, YESTERDAY. I TOLD HIM I WAS ENDING CHURCH, AND ASKED IF I COULD PRAY FOR HIM, TO WHICH HE RESPONDED, "YOU CAN DO DAT", AND HUNG UP, AFTER WHICH I PRAYED FOR HIM. I THOUGHT NO MORE ABOUT IT, UNTIL, ABOUT A WEEK LATER, MY PHONE RINGS. THE CALLER ID SAID PRIVATE NUMBER. THE JAMAICAN MAN ASKED IF I'D EVER HEARD OF PUBLISHER'S CLEARINGHOUSE. AS I WAS ASLEEP, AND HE, UNKNOWINGLY WOKE ME, I SAID, "YOU'RE SO FULL OF [censored]. THAT'S WHY YOUR EYES ARE BROWN."I HUNG UP, AND HAVEN'T HEARD ANY MORE. I APOLOGIZE FOR THE LANGUAGE, BUT, WHEN AWAKENED, I'M APT TO SAY ANYTHING TO A CALLER. THANK YOU.

I received multiple calls trying to reach a person I have never heard of for the last 2 weeks. They state they are with DSR, then a recording says the persons name and sometimes another recording kicks in. They either say they are trying to reach the person or they say they are trying to confirm employment. Each call states it's the 2nd attempt, 3rd attempt, 4th attempt, final attempt, etc. not in order either. I have never answered any of their calls and I have blocked the number but still they leave voice mails. Initially I was receiving multiple calls a day, it has decreased to 1 to 2 day now. Not sure how to get them to completely stop contacting me without actually interacting with them.

We purchased house through Veterans United at the end of August 2023. A subsidiary group of Veterans United(i guess because the business address is the same) called Mortgage Research Center, LLC took control of our mortgage. We initially said "yes" to requesting more information about mortgage protection insurance. We received a call from a representative of Mortgage Research Center, LLC about a week after our closing. We decided at that time, telling the representative, we were no longer interested in this service. We have been inundated with mail, emails and repeated phone calls. It is to the point that it is harassing. My husband and I have both independently told them via email, text and on the phone to stop contacting us. I don't know how to make this stop. Contacting the ScamPulse.com may not be the right choice, but I don't know where to turn. Thank you for your time and please assist.

Then they asked for Google Voice verification code on and asked me to add it .

Then they asked for another phone # like a family member.

Type of a scam Government Agency Imposter

Caller identified as a Medicare affiliate & asked for the Medicare card ID for my husband. He did give this info.

The caller then indicated they wanted to give us more benefits thru Medicare, which triggered a recognition that this was a call to enroll him in Medicare advantage plan vs regular Medicare. He told caller repeatedly that he was not interested in moving to an advantage plan, and had to hang up as they kept talking. Three times the same person called him back to get him to complete that signup for the advantage plan; the last call the lady said she would just keep calling until he completed the information for her. At that point, we blocked calls from that number. This is unethical pressure - to target senior citizens and keep calling them back until they gave the necessary information. Please prosecute these people for mis-representing themselves as Medicare & pressuring elderly people into moving to their advantage plan.

Type of a scam Phishing

I received an email from a relative about an invitation to a party. The email used my relative’s exact email address and name. The message instructed me to click on a link to an invitation on Punchbowl, which I later found is the name of a legitimate company that is used to invite people to parties/events. I clicked on the link, which opened a website that instructed me to type in my email address and password. I followed these instructions three or four times, each time receiving a response on the website that the password I was giving was incorrect. After being told by my relative that she did not send the email, I realized the imposter may have been able to capture my email password. As of this writing (about a month after receiving the email message), I have had no unusual activity on my bank accounts or other accounts. But I was definitely scammed.
