I received a call from Jack Rosenberg who told me I had won $2.5 million dollars and a Mercedes Benz, color of my choice. If I didn't want the car, I could get a separate check for $130,000. I've been talking to him for over a month. This morning he called from 775-546-2087. He says he's in Cleveland and will deliver the cash to me in a couple of hours if I pay him $1100 for the IRS to release the package. He says he doesn't have a credit card because PCH is paying for his room in Cleveland. He's asking for a check written out to Sean Phillips, then take a picture and send it to his phone. He says he is trusting in the Lord that I will do this. He says he lives on 8100 Military Rd, Amelia, VA. He has an accent, but I can't identify it, not American. He told me I could call the Better Business Bureau in Washington DC at 202-900-9274 to ask if he is good.

Caller stated I had won $2,800,000 and $7,000 weekly and a Mercedes Benz automobile. The paperwork they sent me had some glaring errors on it. It had a copy of a check from Bank of America with routing and account numbers on it. It also asked for me to advance $20,000 to circumvent the FDIC insurance limit of $250,000. Along with that there were other obvious typographical errors in the paperwork they sent. One was using a % instead of a $ sign. Calling 10,000,000,000 as ten million.

Received a call from Jordan Fisher who said he was with Publishers Clearing House on 2/6/2024. He called from 1-516-914-1047. He asked if I had read my notification letters from Publishers Clearing House recently. I told him I had not. He kept telling me that this call was not for solicitation purposes. He stated that I had won an award from the Publisher’s Clearing House and proceeded to tell me what I had won: a blue certified check made payable to me in the amount of $958,000, $5,000 a week until I died from the Visa Department and a 2024 Cherry Red Ford Bronco with black interior. (There were 3 choices of exterior and interior colors to choose from: exterior was Cherry Red, Midnight Blue or Black. Interior was Tan, Beige or Black). He gave me his ID number (5602JF); the JF is for Jordan Fisher. He spelled his last name for me. He asked me to write down all the information he was giving me. He told me that a team from Point Pleasant WV would be bringing my winnings. He asked me to write down the address for Publishers Clearing House in New York. The address he gave me was: 101 Winner Circle, Jericho, NY 11752. He asked if anyone was home to share the surprise with; I told him my husband was almost home. He asked me to not say anything to my husband until the team showed up. He also asked me my age. He called me by my previous last name. I told him that I had remarried but he did not ask what my new name was. He said they understood that that happens. He did give my mailing address to me. Then he asked how I would respond to this prize when the team showed up. I told him I was excited and wanted to jump up and down screaming and happy. He then asked if I thought this was a joke and I told him no I did not. He said I’m canceling this because you are not taking it seriously. I told him I was. He said will you go meet the delivery team. I told him that he did not give me directions on where to do that. He disconnected the call. I tried calling the number back. That same voice answered via an answering machine. It stated good day Stanley Jones. If you’re calling leave a message.

They left a voice mail message saying I won 100million $ - 7K/week for life, along with a Mercedes Benz and requested that I call them back at 716-220-7853.

I did not call, but rather researched online regarding probably scam. Found this page and reported it.

I received a voice mail last week stating they were the Publishers Clearing House and I won $7,000 a week. When I returned the phone call asking for the claim department, they transferred me to another gentleman that I couldn't understand and they wanted me to open up a new bank account at my current bank so they could transfer the money to the account. The also wanted me to go to Dollar General and purchase 2 green cards at $800 a piece. He hung because I told him I didn't have that kind of money.

Scammer wrote me a a signed letter by Deborah Holland, Executive Vice President of Publisher's Clearing House:. That letter stated that I won $750,000.. The scammers also included a check issued to me for $7,900.25 to (cover the taxes, handling and processing fees of the amount won. The letter explained that this was confidential and that I needed to cal lMr. Jerry Price for the method of payment at one of these numbers: 1-718-696-7762 or 1-516-600-0056. The letter stated that because this was from an Internatonal Prmotions/Prize Award Dept., I would need to pay my international Sweepstakes by law: taxes, handling and processing fees.

When I called the real Publishers Clearing House, they replied that the check that I received and the information was a scam.

I received a Facebook call from someone claiming to be from Publishers Clearing House. He said I won $7000 a week for the rest of my life. The page looked legitimate. He wanted me to fill out a form while we were on the phone and I ended up giving him my SSN. He asked for my debit card info and I hung up because I realized it was a scam.

My mother received a call from someone claiming to be Publishers Clearing House. They told her she won $2.5 million plus $7000 a week for life. They said she had to pay $4722.18 in taxes to receive my money. They said they paid 99% of the taxes for her because she is a senior citizen. I called them back and they gave me confirmation codes and verification codes as well as a code they claimed was for their information with BBB. They gave me bank info to call and verify the funds were in the bank, they gave a Chase bank account and it said there was $4 million in the account. It wasn't in a Publishers Clearing House account it's in a Treasury Department account as unclaimed funds.

I received a call from someone claiming to be with Publisher's Clearing House. They had me write down a bunch of information: Michael Blue, badge #070, prize #235373 and that I was the US certified winner. They were going to give me a cashier's check from Bank of America for $2,580,000 and a 2024 navy blue Ford Explorer black interior with blue stitching. He gave me a private/confidential number 015682WD1X but didn't say what it was for. He also gave me names of the "Prize Patrol Team": Andy Goldberg, Deborah Allen, Dave Sayers. He said that the Prize Patrol Team would visit me with a sheriff's deputy to deliver the prize. Then he asked if I could come up with the first payment of $850 to receive my prize, and I figured it was a scam.
