Type of a scam: Sweepstakes/Lottery/Prizes

Jerry Walters called and claimed that I won with the Publisher's Clearing House. I thought it was odd because I never entered anything in to the PCH. He claimed that it was because I shopped at a few different places and they convert cash spent into chances to win the sweepstakes. I had apparently won $15.5 million and a Mercedes Benz through this. They told me they would be delivering the car on that Saturday (they had called me on Friday initially) and the manager would be calling me back to explain more details. I had to leave at the time and spoke with the manager on Saturday as they claimed. He said the car wouldn't be there yet as I needed to get a $800 cashier's check in order to get my winnings. I had to send this check to Sam Sterns at 1626 Kings Mill Way APT 113 in Madison Wisconsin, 53718.

James McCarthy contacted me claiming he represented PCH and that I was the 2nd Place winner, with a prize of 2.5 million dollars, $5,000 a week for life, and a 2020 Mercedes, shell gas for a year, licensed and insured by AllState. He informed me I would need to pay processing fee of $499.32. After I would be issued a check from Bank of America, with a 32% income tax with the IRS.

I received a letter in the mail informing me that I had won 2nd prize in the Publishers Clearing House Sweepstakes for $450,000. With the first initial check along with the letter. But it made me suspicious because they did not want me to tell any 3 rd party until I contacted them. So I Googled Publishers Clearinghouse and found out that they do not send out letters to your door. They only show up at your door with flowers and the great big check. So if you get a letter claiming you won, Report it to the BBB.

Received a call from a person called John Washington claiming to be a representative from Publishers Clearing House headquarters in Las Vegas. The phone number was (702)805-8970. I picked up the phone because I ordered products and entered the PCH sweepstakes in the past . He claimed that I won $5 million dollars and a 2019 Mercedes Benz. They asked for a credit card number so they could charge $1100 for to cover tax and delivery and it has to be paid upfront. They asked me to call the escrow agent at (916) 237-0204 to pay the $1100. I paid this scammer nothing because it's a scam.

Email made it seem like I won a prize, but I didn’t recall entering anything. Did some research and it appears that it’s likely a scam. I didn’t click any of the links just in case it was a scam, so I can’t give you the website they led to.

Received a email from these people that I won $1000 in the PCH lottery. I clicked the link and it took me too a PCH site. I assumed that it was real. I did give the information requested on the form. Received another email asking for bank information. This sent a red flag to me. They said they only send balloons to the big winners. Called my bank. They advised me not to give any additional information to them and contact you. I do have the email string if you need it. I hope this was a scam and I didn’t turn down money.

Enclosed are papers from scam artists. I had ignored or trashed them. I was so excited, because I thought I had won enough money to repair our church in VA. We need a lot of money for repairs its only about 22 of us. None are rich. The letter came from publishers clearing house, so I thought . I have entered so many contests from them (PCH). I sure hope you will be able to find a way to warn seniors and other citizens so they won't get caught up in this scam.It was not until I had given out some important information that it sank into my head that I was being scammed.
