A friend was told she received $100,000 free from Publisher Clearing House. She stated that she didn't even have to pay it back. Said she saw my name on the list of recipients when her check was delivered to her. She gave me the number to call and told me to text them. Said they would get back to me immediately. Well, they did and were very pushy about me giving them my information. After checking with the ScamPulse.com I politely declined their offer. They were even more insistent that they were legitimate. See photos of their texts for details.

Man called name John Day badge # 422B1 Publishers Clearing House said I was a 2nd place Prize Winner of 2.8 million dollars. My pkg winning Number 99713178US ( which is very close to my cell # he called me on last 4 are correct) Also I won a Mercedes Benz asked me what color I wanted and gave me a bar code of 5492711MS asked me what color and if I wanted a 2 or 4 door. Told me an Attorney named Mary Lee would meet me to go to the bank with me after my Armored Car brought me my check for 2.08 million and to expect a flat bed truck to be after the Armored Car carrying the Mercedes Benz in my color and 2 door. Explained to me what the FDIC was and gave me the name of Delivery agent Paul Green driving the Armored Car.

I told him I never heard of winning a prize like that and being asked to go to Wal Mart to pay $210.00 to get my registered receipt that had not showed up in the mail on Friday. I used my house phone to call my daughter and then my son and he heard the conversation and hung up on me. The Police Department gave me this web site to let others know. The only info I gave him was my address and my name. Hopefully that wasn't too much. My credit is bad so I hope they get nothing out of that info. They also told me they sent me a notification letter I should of received on Friday..

Someone saying they were with Publishers Clearinghouse called my cell phone saying I had won 3 1/2 million dollars and a 2019 Mercedes Benz convertible. They were very convincing. They told me all I had to do was pay $650 for a one time fee and they would actually come and pick up the fee to be paid in cash. I asked them if they could take the fee from my winnings and they said they could not do that. I then asked them for some paperwork to show all the details and they said they would email me information. In the meantime I called the ScamPulse.com who told it as a scam. While I was on the phone with the ScamPulse.com they called again and I when I told them I was on the phone with the ScamPulse.com they hung up on me.

I got a call a couple of days ago letting me know I had won Publisher's Clearing House. They gave me a number to call back. I called Dave Williams who told me to buy gift card for $500 from CVS. He said they were an hour out from my house. I went in to CVS and the manager said he wasn't sure if it was a scam. I said I don't have that kind of money. He said "You're not giving us any cash or anything". I hung up.

David Law called and said I had won the Publishers Clearing House, I almost fell for it, it sounded so wonderful. Then he told me I would have to pay the shipping and handling charges of $805.00 - that is when I hung up on him, he called me back and said why did you hang up on me. I told him, he was yelling at me and because I would not do what you said to do. And was not going to deal with him. That is when I called the Better Business Bureau.

I got a call from Daniel he said he was with Publisher's Clearinghouse. He said I won $1.7 million. He wanted my bank card, so he could send the money ot the bank. I didn't give it to him because it's in my husband's name. Then he asked for my Driver's license number and my social security number so he could set up an account at the Laurelville Bank. I gave it to him. He told me to call him back at 816-535-9677 at 11am. He thought he would have the account set up by then. He had an accent. I could hardly understand him. I could hear others talking in the background. He's still calling. I called the Hocking County Sheriff's Department to report the call.
